After Prince Yongshou and a group of Zhenguo generals were taken away, the atmosphere in Chengyun Hall also changed subtly.
Including Zhu Gongxi, King of Qin himself.
He looked at Xu Youzhen at a loss.
This is not in the script.
Xu Youzhen, however, looked calm and sat down again.
"Now that I have finished speaking, if you have anything to say, just say it. I am all ears."
After Xu Youzhen finished speaking, she looked around calmly.
And these clan kings, generals and others couldn't help but lower their heads, no longer as happy and unrestrained as before.
In fact, none of the Ming Dynasty clan members in the Chengyun Palace, except the young His Highness King Qin, had any cases on their backs.
They are a privileged organization, they are the masters of the Ming Dynasty, and they do not have to pay for bullying others. This is the education they have received since childhood.
"Since everyone has nothing to say, I will just say a few more words."
"The new tax system is not only for the line of the King of Qin, but also for the more than 30 princes and vassals of the Ming Dynasty. It is just that it starts from the line of the King of Qin. Therefore, you princes and generals do not have to worry about gains and losses. No one has to worry about gains and losses. Can’t run away.”
After Xu Youzhen finished speaking, she turned to look at Zhu Gongxi and said with a smile: "Do you think so, Your Highness the King of Qin?"
After hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Zhu Gongxi hurriedly responded: "What the Censor of Xu Du said is reasonable. I, the King of Qin, are the first vassal in the Ming Dynasty. I should take the lead and set an example. Everyone, I have already discussed it with the Censor of Xu Du. , All the clans of King Qin’s family must dare to be the first, dedicate themselves, and illuminate others, big guy, okay..."
Still no one from the clan in Chengyun Hall spoke.
Zhu Gongxi was slightly embarrassed.
He is the king of Qin.
The words were just thrown to the ground.
For these clans, whoever answers the question at this time has agreed.
Although depending on the situation, whether they agree or not is no longer something they can control, but these people are still unwilling to be the first to agree.
Of course, Xu Youzhen still had a way to deal with this situation.
Doesn’t anyone want to be the first to cut off the meat?
Then take half your life.
He cleared his throat: "Don't all of you agree?"
"Your Highness, King Qin, there is no need to persuade them. You can directly report to the court and send all those who disagree..."
"Oh, Xu Du Yushi, I didn't say that I disagreed..."
"That's right, I didn't say anything either."
"The king agrees..."
"Then if you agree, I will also agree..."
………………
At this time, the remaining princes expressed their opinions one after another.
Wealth is important, but status is even more important...
Seeing these princes express their opinions, King Zhu Gongxi of Qin also felt a little more relaxed.
Of course, there is no evidence for what you say, but you still need to establish written evidence.
Xu Youzhen took out the documents prepared in advance and asked many princes and generals to sign their names.
After finishing, Xu Youzhen gave the document to Zhu Gongxi: "His Royal Highness King Qin, please write your name as well. Put it away after you finish writing. You can take advantage of this year's New Year greeting card to present it to His Majesty."
After Zhu Gongxi heard this, he felt a little happy. It seemed that Xu Youzhen didn't want to get any limelight at all, it was all for himself.
At that moment, Zhu Gongxi signed his name on the document, and then he was satisfied...
………………
After Xu Youzhen left the Prince of Qin's Mansion, she returned directly to Guanyi. Although she only had three days to celebrate the New Year, Xu Youzhen still had a lot of things to do. M.biQuge.biZ
The first thing is to communicate with local officials about the clan property.
Li Bing, the governor of Shaanxi and Henan provinces, came to Xi'an Mansion in person and brought a group of officials to meet Xu Youzhen at the official post.
Then Xu Youzhen informed Li Bing and others about the vassal affairs.
The new tax system needs to be thorough.
This should be the case whether it is the clan, officials, or ordinary people.
Li Bing was once an official of the Ministry of War. After the Civil War in the 14th year of Zhengtong, he was a strong supporter of Yu Qian's main war faction. He also had an acquaintance with Xu Youzhen.
The two of them also had some interactions when Qinyang Mansion was providing disaster relief.
When Li Bing finished hearing that Xu Youzhen had taken care of the Qin Prince's Mansion, he was quite surprised, but he was also lucky.
Xu Youzhen's order was to inspect the implementation of the new tax system in Henan, Shandong, and Shaanxi provinces. At this time, he had just finished visiting Shaanxi, and there were still two places in Henan and Shandong that he had not visited.
He had no plans to return to Beijing, so he followed Li Bing to the governor's office in Luoyang and spent the New Year at Li Bing's home.
Li Bing also treated Xu Youzhen well, who helped him a lot.
In the capital, the annual large-scale banquet political event also started as scheduled in the Huagai Hall.
Zhu Jianshen dressed in imperial robes and began to have a banquet with many ministers in the Huagai Palace.
Back then, that child had become an adult.
The cup in my hand changed from tea to wine today.
Many of the ministers who participated in the banquet left, but many others joined in.
Zhu Jianshen held the wine glass and said to the ministers below: "My dear friends, in the Battle of Annan, Wuyang Hou won a great victory. Li Yimin, the leader of the thieves, was punished by heaven and died. Li Li, the leader of the thieves, was also violently killed in the wilderness. This is such a joy. , you all drink this glass of wine together."
Many ministers shouted: "God bless you, Your Majesty is mighty..."
After finishing speaking, many ministers drank the wine in one gulp.
But Zhu Jianshen just took a sip.
After everyone had finished their drinks, Zhu Jianshen continued: "This year, the amount of money received and deposited by the Ministry of Accounts exceeded last year's 650,000 taels. The new tax system has gradually spread in the Ming Dynasty and has become a general trend. This is the second blessing. Let's have a drink. .”
………………
Zhu Jianshen had a glass of wine and made hundreds of courtiers drink three or four glasses in a row, but after drinking the wine, he reached the climax.
It is also the moment that many ministers long for.
Red envelopes.
The Ming Dynasty treasure note is still not in the sequence of red envelopes.
Also in accordance with last year's regulations, red envelopes began to be distributed according to the grade of officials.
The living standards of Ming officials were continuously improved with the help of year-end bonuses.
Of course, when the red envelopes were distributed, it was organized by officials from the Ministry of Revenue. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor had already left Huagai Hall and returned to Kunning Palace to attend the family banquet.
Empress Dowager Zhou and Empress Zhang sat on either side of Zhu Jianshen, and many concubines and attendants also appeared at the family banquet. Of course, Zhu Jianshen's three sons and one daughter were also present...
After the New Year, the long sealing period of only ten days comes...
Except for confidential yamen, almost all officials have dozens of days of long vacation…………
The fourteenth year of Chenghua has arrived...
