Wanli Xinming

Chapter 378 Tax Reform (IX)

The nephew and the uncle discussed for a long time, but they didn't get any point.Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Xiaoyi sincerely reserved the meal, and Wu Yun harassed him for a while.After eating the wine, he staggered away with the two big fish that Zhang Gui had picked.

News came the next day that because the scholars from Fucheng were in series to resist taxation, the leading ones were beaten by Ling Shihong, a student from Guangdong, and they were deprived of their fame. This stabbed a hornet's nest, and all the scholars from Guangdong rushed to Guangzhou. Crying Confucian Temple.

Cai Ruxian, the governor of Guangdong, was in Guangzhou when he heard the news. He was shocked when he heard the news. He called the two prefects of Guangzhou, Sui Yong and Ling Shihong, to the governor Xingyuan. Large-scale 'crying temple', we all have a relationship!".

Ling Shihong, styled Chengzhao, was a Jinshi in Jiajing for 35 years, and now he has passed the year of destiny.He has been studying in the officialdom for nearly 30 years, and he has worked to the fourth rank as the deputy inspector to study Taoism. At this time, he did not explain Cai Ruxian's scolding.

According to the law, although the academic officer is a local official, the superintendent shall not interfere with the academic administration.However, because the superintendent of the school still has the title of deputy commissioner or sham, the superintendent's reprimanding him is also due. , Ling Shihong caused instability in the place, and Futai scolded him only to suffer.

The prefect of Guangzhou was born in Sui Yong hardship. Before he developed, he had a family with four walls. Although he has been an official for many years and his eunuchs have already been rich, the shadow of his youth is too great, and he still has a vague hatred for the rich.Seeing that Cai Ruxian was stern to Ling Shihong and made himself "comfortable", he snorted coldly in his heart, then cupped his hands to Cai Ruxian and said, "Futai, although Ling Xuedao is a little more stubborn, the lower official thinks that what he has done is not out of the ordinary! "

"In the tenth year of Wanli, the imperial court issued the "Practice on the Management of Private School Licenses", ordering students all over the world to abide by the instruction of Zhongni's four nos, and those who do not obey the teacher's teaching, make false statements, coerce private individuals to litigate, and even coerce the government, It should be strictly forbidden to enter the school in various places.' Now the students in the government are connected with each other, and they have violated our province's tax reform policy.

These words were hard, and the top of Cai Ruxian's face flashed with anger.He said with a stern face: "The prefect of Sui, when I govern, I have to uphold the will. He Xinyin is rehabilitated, Guo Siji is judged, and the heart of the emperor Yourong's son is very clear-" He added emphasis on the word prefect, meaning Remind your subordinates to distinguish the size.

Sui rolled his triangular eyes and sneered: "What Futai said is true. Guo Siji made an unjust case and killed He Xinyin. According to the law, it should not be exile. If the court really wants to 'yourong' scholar and kill his head, no one can I can't pick the wrong one! Only one was exiled, and he didn't even copy his home, so it can be seen that the idea has not changed from the tenth year of Wanli." He also added emphasis to the word "Yourong", which is regarded as a small gesture to his boss. In return.

Before waiting for the boss to retort, he continued: "Besides, what is the biggest intention now? The lower officials thought it was 'tax reform'! When the Great Reform started, scholars supported by the landlords in Jiangnan clamored for Shilin to help and protect everyone in Jiangnan. You can also see what kind of Futai turned out."

As Sui Yong talked eloquently, Ling Shihong's mouth became wider and wider.Because of his self-proclaimed cleanliness on weekdays, some look down on the prefect of Sui who was born with mud legs.Although the two were both of the fourth rank, they were in Qingliu Huaxuan, and they were also older than Sui Yong, so they still had a sense of superiority at ordinary times, so they didn't deal with it very much.

Unexpectedly, in the face of Cai Ruxian's rebuke, he didn't do well, but the irrelevant Sui Zhifu became violent. Ling Shihong had mixed feelings in his heart, and secretly swore in his heart that he must call him brother and sister to Sui Zhifu in the future.

Cai Ruxian's face was full of anger at first, but as Sui Yong put out the truth, his complexion first turned from blue to red, then turned back to normal, and then the two corners of his mouth twitched upwards, turning into a very warm smile.

After Sui Yong finished speaking, Cai Ruxian pointed at him with a smile and said, "What a handsome Sui, Ben Fu just said 'to appease', look at your big set, so that the old man can't even get in the mouth - depending on you What should I do?" He smiled, leaning his neck towards Sui Yong, and bending his body, as if he was sincerely asking for advice.

When Sui Yong saw his superior Li Xian and Corporal rise, he also changed to Hao Ran's expression, bowed his hands on the chair and said, "Xiaguan does not choose words, please forgive me, Lord Futai."

"I don't know about your outrageous temper? There's no need to make false statements—" Cai Futai sat upright, picked up the teacup and drank slowly.Although Sui Yong didn't need to use flimsy words, he changed the topic and said, "Zhuangyou is a good name, but the 'Journey to the Great Way' in "Book of Rites" came from the use of it?"

"Futai is full of poems and books, and it is true. The self-title of Xiaguan comes from 'strong and useful', but it means self-improvement."

"Well, good! The name is good, the number is good, and the person is an official!"

"Ashamed and ashamed, I am ashamed that I dare not be praised by Futai, and I am honored by Hua Gun."

Ling Shihong continued to open his mouth wide, and said inwardly ashamed: "How did I get up to the fourth rank? No wonder it took 30 years to do a promotion. This Sui use will be limitless in the future!" Ingratiate him.

The governor's attitude changed to be kind, and the prefect was full of arrogance and arrogance.After listening to the two talk about the tax reform for a while, he finally couldn't help but say, "Lord Futai, I don't know what the regulations are for this 'Crying Temple' thing?"

When Cai Ruxian heard the question, he glanced at him in disgust, but involuntarily looked at Sui Yong.Sui Yong pondered for a while, and said sternly, "Lord Futai, the lower official thinks that the solution to this matter still lies in the 'shangyi' that Futai just said."

Cai Ruxian and Ling Shihong are both willing to hear about it.Sui Yongdao said, "The imperial court's will for us in Guangdong is to try out. The lower officials have repeatedly tried them over the years. Any 'experiment' is probably a big advantage."

"The first is that local governance is cheap. If there is a pilot program and there are some small troubles in the governance, as long as the tiger skin of the pilot content can be involved, the court will often open the door, so as not to cold the courage to serve in the local area - this is one of the reasons. ."

"The second is cheap money. For example, at the beginning of the reform, the king of Zhongxing County cleaned up the world's burdens. His hometown Jiangling was the first pilot. At that time, people said that he was the first to set an example. What is the result? After it is fully rolled out, if you fail to do [-]% of the test, you will not pass the exam! Tell me, shouldn't the elders in Jiangling give the county king tree a biography now?" Cai Ruxian suddenly realized that he nodded again and again.

"Once again, local officials are cheap. There have been changes in the personnel of the court over the years, and all the local officials who have done well in the pilot have been promoted - I stroked it, and there is no exception!"

After saying this, Cai Ruxian's breathing became heavy.He stroked his beard and smiled, "Really?"

Sui Yong replied: "Futai High School entered Qingliu Huaxuan, and has been serving as an official in Beijing for all these years. I don't know that there are also some of these in the local officialdom. Those of us who started from the magistrates, how can we just bow our heads and work as coolies, all the time. You have to look up at the direction of the imperial court—after Mr. Liang Menglong entered the cabinet, I have all said that the imperial court has changed, and in the future, when the magistrates will be very successful, why don't you just stare at the Dibao to understand?"

Then he gently flattered and said: "Futai took office from the capital of the capital, which is exactly in line with the 'prime minister's origin in the state and county'. If the tax reform pilot is completed, the position of the minister will be just around the corner. Entering the cabinet is not an unreasonable idea.”

When Cai Ruxian heard the words, he was very happy at first, and then he muttered to himself: "This scumbag is a village custom, and the speech is so straightforward, it makes the person around him look down on it." His mouth was wide open, and he looked like he was going to pay homage to Sui Ying, and he was even more disgusted in his heart.

But with a smile on his face, he said: "Zhuang You is wrong, I don't dare to think about it." Afraid that he would say those scratching things again, he asked: "Zhuang You, talk about the 'crying temple'. What's the matter, will the plan come out?"

Sui Yong said with a smile: "Futai has what the Ming court wants, and how to deal with nature has a good idea. The lower officials have a shallow view, and the right should throw a brick to attract jade-"

"The so-called 'scholars rebel, it will not be successful in three years'. They are just a lot of people who are helpless, what can they do? In the past, those who were able to make troubles, but only used 'Qingyi' to govern the government and force the county officials. Now Whether my generation of magistrates can make progress depends entirely on the exams—even if the 'Qingyi' is stinky, as long as they pass the exams, they will definitely be promoted within three to five years."

Today's Cai Ruxian was simply given a lesson by the prefect under his command, and he was stunned.Sui Yong continued: "Maybe they can agitate the public opinion, but the lower officials think that there is no need to worry about this section - now the public opinion is fierce, and they all think that the industry and commerce have made a lot of money through the reform, but they are also cheated, and they are not benevolent for the rich. The so-called not suffering from the few, but not evenly, these people have long been jealous and jealous, and the bitter hahas can't wait for them to pour some blood and mold to watch the fun - how much waves can these measures make?"

At this time, Cai Ruxian was like a daigo, and he kept saying wonderful things!Sui Yong was admired by his boss, grinned and said, "Actually, the lower official was already prepared."

Cai Ruxian was convinced by the prefect of the Sui Dynasty, and asked him what preparations he had made.Sui Yong's triangular eyes were full of jokes, and he smiled and said, "Wait for them to enter the city, like this." Cai Ruxian and Ling Shihong heard his bad idea and laughed wildly.

　I don't want to say anything about the apology - Mr. Morse is busy.The standardized and refined management of the new unit is not enough.
