Compromise is a time-honored trick in the temple!
The six bosses soon noticed the signs and felt disappointed. They knew that this was just a show for them, and the final result had already been decided.
It’s just that they don’t know where the bottom line is.
Without knowing it, joining hastily will only make you passive. Although Liubu is unwilling to do so, he can only be a bystander.
In this temple struggle, the six departments were completely defeated, and all the officials and ministers took the blame and resigned. Their morale was gone and they gave up their ideas. óΠъ.oяＧ
Alas, the team has broken up and it’s hard to lead...
They are angry about the cabinet, but the current situation does not allow them to dictate too much, at least for a long time.
The minister and the minister remained silent and quietly acted as spectators, watching his performance.
However, the court did not become deserted because of their silence, but became more lively.
The cabinet expressed support to the emperor, the left and right deputy censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the General Affairs Envoy Si Tongzheng, the Minister of Taichang Temple, the Minister of Dali Temple, the Minister of Zhanshifu... waving flags and shouting, it was so lively.
Even the mid-level officials of the Sixth Ministry have many supporters.
For a time, the cabinet became a good person who petitioned for officials, shining brightly.
Of course, there are many smart people who see something fishy in this, but the general trend of the cabinet has been established, and the best choice is to follow the trend, not to mention, they are also the beneficiaries.
When the voices in the court tend to be unified, praise is not enough and is not allowed.
…
After some arguing, the emperor finally compromised.
The "Labor Law" was reduced and commercial taxes were reduced to 30% of the price of goods. At the same time, the limit on goods exporting to overseas was also cancelled.
In this situation, everyone is happy.
This provides an opportunity for the officials and gentry to become bigger, and everyone is the beneficiary, including senior officials of the Six Ministries.
Maritime business is so profitable, who wouldn't want to take advantage of it and make a fortune?
After a court meeting, the new national policy won the support of everyone, and the edict was quickly issued, and Xiaoyu reigned supreme!
~
Small courtyard,
Li Qing smiled softly when he learned that the edict was issued. If this move is taken, it will have a positive effect on the Ming Dynasty's commerce and even industry.
Businessmen are profit-seeking, and only when they are profitable can they be enterprising. If we want Ming Dynasty to move toward semi-industrialization or even industrialization, we must boost the confidence of these businessmen.
The merchants in this era were basically officials and gentry, and there were also private merchants, but the proportion was too small, and most of them could not do much business.
After all... there is only one Shen Xin in Ming Dynasty.
Nowadays, Ming Dynasty is in the budding stage of capital. Li Qing did this to cultivate capital and let it drive the market economy.
Let the economic river flow rapidly and run endlessly...
However, he also understands that there will definitely be a series of problems that will arise in the future, but in comparison, industrialization is far better than agricultural development.
A series of national policies, such as the allocation of people into acres, the reform of the household registration system, and the clearing of land, as well as the introduction of new crops, have caused the population of the Ming Dynasty to grow rapidly. So far, the population of the Ming Dynasty has reached 120 million.
If a large part of such a large population cannot be liberated from the land in the future, it will not only be a huge loss, but it may even turn into a disaster.
In fact, Li Qing was committed to developing industry, and he also considered diverting the attention of the gentry to business, instead of focusing on the three-acre land.
If this move is successful, Ming Dynasty will embark on a new path and become the strongest entity in the unified dynasty.
It is true that the superstructure of the Ming Dynasty was not fundamentally different from that in history. The imperial power showed signs of decline and corruption became widespread.
However, the underlying building is completely different. It is extremely solid...
Li Qing is very satisfied that the Ming Dynasty has come this far, really satisfied, and even very proud.
He alone, forcibly changed the course of the Ming Dynasty ship, making it move on a more correct route. He asked himself, and he did not embarrass the travelers.
Of course, he can't compare with the protagonist of "Destiny" in "The Destiny", but he did the best he could.
He originally came down the mountain to treat Queen Ma. After all these years, he still plays the role of a doctor. The difference is...
First it was to heal people, now it is to heal the nation.
Fortunately, he is not a quack...

The slow pace of leisurely life always passes quickly.
In late autumn, the leaves turn yellow and wither; in the cold winter, everything is desolate and covered in silver...
The new national policy has been implemented very well, because the new national policy can make the wealthy gentry bigger and stronger, and the losses caused by the "Labor Law" seem insignificant in comparison.
They naturally responded positively…
At the beginning of winter, military reports came from Liaodong.
This time, the Plow Court sweep of caves came to an end, and a total of more than a thousand people were beheaded. If the military intelligence report hadn't clearly written the words "Destroy their caves and exterminate their species", Li Qing would have suspected that he had read it wrong.
Kill more than a thousand people and wipe out their species... Li Qing whispered to himself: "It seems that the Jianzhou Jurchens are weaker than I thought..."
There is no doubt that the report is definitely exaggerated, but it also illustrates how small the Jurchen ethnic group is in Jianzhou at this stage.
Li Qing shook his head and smiled bitterly, muttering: "You are so weak that I can't even convince the emperor to pay attention to you. It's really..."
Now that it's like this, there's no need to target it anymore. The main reason is that it's untenable.
Mobilizing tens of thousands of soldiers in the cold wind and rain just for a few fish that slipped through the net is really too much fuss.
The dedication and reward are not directly proportional, and the soldiers will definitely not pay attention, and in the end, their efforts will be in vain.
Li Qing shook his head, and then annotated other memorials...
After finishing today's work, Li Qing stretched his body and said hello: "I'm sorry that I'm busy."
Several people stopped their work and stood up to send each other off: "Master Li, please go slowly."
They still respect the image spokesperson very much. This is due to their guilty conscience - they did not pay the endorsement fee.
Li Qing didn't care about this. He was now committed to letting Zhu Jianshen take power. As for the rest... it wasn't important to him.
As time went by, he felt more and more that there was not much he could do.
Although the water in the temple has always been turbid, the entire Ming Dynasty is generally developing according to his expectations. The reason why the temple is still turbid is the human heart, or human nature.
Everyone is dissatisfied with their desires. How can the water in the temple become clear even if they think about it well?
Li Qing was really powerless to change this, so he could only help the emperor centralize power and create a political system that ruled independently but benefited all.
Only in this way can the water in this pool be... relatively clear.
It snowed heavily today. Walking on the way home, stepping on the thick white snow and looking at the desolate land covered in silver, Li Qing sighed softly:
"In a few years, I will probably be able to return to my hometown and return to my original life. Then I will be a wandering Taoist priest, traveling around mountains and rivers... Well, that kind of life... should be pretty good."
He was a little yearning and a little melancholy, just like this path home, there was only a row of footprints...

The strong rise of the cabinet made the court calm to a certain extent, and the relationship between monarch and ministers turned to a moderate development after Zhu Jianshen's two sneak attacks worsened.
Zhu Jian knew how to advance and retreat, and knew how to deal with things. The cabinet received his favor and naturally reciprocated the favor. Coupled with the fact that the year was approaching, it could be said that they were in harmony.
Everyone tried their best to maintain a balance and adhere to the concept of living a good life... and finally made it to the Chinese New Year.
The fourth year of Chenghua is the first day of the Lunar New Year.
In Fengtian Temple Square, after so many years, the emperor has been elected one after another, but there seems to be no fundamental change, and the words of the past are still reproduced;
The same goes for the ministers, saying auspicious words and laughing after receiving the red envelopes...
This power field never seems to change, just like a game, only the player characters change, not the mechanism...
This year he was the only one celebrating the New Year. There were no fireworks, no red lanterns, not even new year's goods...but there was wine.
Li Qing was wearing a dark robe, sitting under the eaves, looking at the white snow in the yard, and taking a sip of wine from time to time.
This sitting is a day.
Perhaps, older people like this...
…
royal palace.
Zhu Jianshen is very busy today. After sending out red envelopes to the outer court, he also has to lead his wives to pay New Year greetings to his mother. After that, he has to send red envelopes to the inner court again...
It wasn't until the end of the Shen Dynasty that he truly felt at ease.
Yongning Palace.
Today, Xiao Wangzhi is wearing new and decent clothes. Her lips are red and her teeth are white, she is delicate and cute.
Seeing such a cute little guy, Zhen'er's depression about celebrating the New Year with the 'old witch' also eased a lot.
Seeing her smiling face, Zhu Jianshen finally breathed a sigh of relief. As the New Year approaches, he has barely reached the highest achievement——
Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs, everything goes as planned!
Zhu Jianshen took out the remaining red envelopes from his arms, stuffed them all into Xiao Wangzhi's hands, and said proudly, "I've rewarded you with them all."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has already rewarded me." Xiao Wangzhi said hesitantly.
Zhen'er smiled and said: "Just take what the emperor rewards you."
"Yes, I thank the emperor for the reward." Xiao Wangzhi quickly knelt down to thank him.
After reading, he became wiser. After receiving the reward, he retired, leaving the emperor and the empress alone.
Zhu Jianshen felt relaxed and said with a chuckle: "You only have a few days of leisure in a year. Zhen'er, please come with me for a walk."
"Yeah, okay." Zhen'er agreed gently, stood up, took off the coat hanger and put it on him, "Where are you going to go shopping?"
Zhu Jian's eyes were deep and gentle: "With Zhen'er, I can go anywhere."
Zhen'er curled her lips and smiled with crooked eyes. However, she stopped smiling in just a moment because she was afraid of wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
After being married for several years, Zhu Jianshen knew what she was thinking. He held her hands tightly and said softly:
"In my heart, Zhen'er will always be that Zhen'er, that gentle, considerate, kind and beautiful Zhen'er. Time...can't take away my Zhen'er."
Zhen'er was startled for a moment, then smiled again. This time she smiled sweetly, happily, and intoxicated...
The two walked in the snow, admiring the snow scenery and talking about interesting things. Their hands were warm and their hearts were warm.
"emperor."
"Um……"
"It's better... to have a dragon as soon as possible." Zhen'er said.
"Okay, I'll work hard tonight." Zhu Jianshen smiled and nodded.
The corners of Zhen'er's lips twitched into a smile, and she smiled bitterly: "My concubine is saying that I want to have a dragon son from the other palace empress."
Zhu Jianshen paused, "Zhen'er, don't give up, you have to believe in yourself."
Zhen'er shook her head gently and persuaded gently: "Your Majesty, you are not only the husband of my concubine, but also the husband of the queen and other concubines. You are also the emperor of the Ming Dynasty..."
