I am the king of the dead

Chapter 625 Time comes and stubborn iron shines, and the gold loses its color

The weak power of the Wa Kingdom is the prerequisite for Ming to transform Ryukyu counties into prefectures and counties. This sentence sounds like it does not meet the high moral requirements of Ming.

"Actually, the Wa Kingdom caused chaos by itself." Looking at Li Binyan's expression, Tang Xing knew that this scholar could not bear it. After all, the Wa Kingdom was in chaos, and the poorest people were the victims.

What is wrong with the people of the Wa country, but who let them be born in the Wa country.

The Yikui Uprising in the Wa Kingdom was the most intense struggle, the most casualties, and the least effective way of struggle.

But what does the people of the Wa country have to do with Daming?
Li Binyan sneered, shook his head and said, "I have worked in Songjiang Mansion for five years, and I have learned a lot from visiting places. Except for the years of Hongwu and Yongle, the people of Ming Dynasty have suffered from the Japanese invasion for a hundred years."

"Benevolence and forgiveness is your Majesty's duty. As a subject, loyalty to the emperor is your duty."

Tang Xing was taken aback, thinking of His Majesty's temper, he said: "As far as the situation in the court is concerned, who dares to say a word for the country of Japan, a pot of excrement that is connected to the Japanese is put on the head, it smells worse than ashes."

Daming has economic interests in the Wa country, that is, those mountains of gold and silver, which are an effective means to alleviate the money shortage in Daming.

Daming has political interests in the Wa Kingdom, and it has expanded its territory. If it wants to stabilize overseas territories such as Ryukyu and Jilong Island, it is impossible for the Wa Kingdom to be strong.

Daming has cultural interests in the Wa Kingdom, and the crime of collaborating with the Wa is much more serious than collaborating with the enemy, but if it involves the Wa Kingdom, it must be the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and he hesitates.

What crushed the Confucian government was the great crime of colluding with the Japanese.

Daming has military interests in Japan, and ensuring the safety of Daming's waters is the duty of Daming's navy, and it is also the appeal of all powerful and powerful businessmen and rich merchants. Otherwise, Japanese pirates are everywhere, how can they do sea trade?
In Ming Dynasty, no one spoke out for the Japanese pirates. The country name of the Japanese country was Japan. Except when the king of Japan was conferred, most of the Ming Dynasty called it the Japanese country.

"What's going on here in Ryukyu?" Tang Xing no longer talked about Japanese pirates. With Shanye Yinshan as a crap stick, the Japanese country could not form a joint force that threatened Ryukyu's prefectures and counties. Instead, he talked about Ryukyu.

Li Binyan told the whole thing in detail.

Officials of the Ming Dynasty felt that when the sky was high and the emperor was far away overseas, they did not treat Ryukyu people as human beings.

For example, in the business of coconut oil, copra, coconut milk, fish oil, clam pearls, lacquerware, etc., the bureaucrats in the first batch went their own way and intensified their efforts, eventually forcing the common people to close the market to avoid excessive taxation.

For example, the imperial decree clearly stated that taxes will be exempted for three years, and these officials deliberately asked a few officials in the north to announce the decree. , cleverly set up a name, levied miscellaneous taxes, wooed the gentry, paid taxes and donations, returned them in full, and split the accounts.

There are many such things, and Li Binyan just picked a few key ones and said that Chen Fuyin was the coconut king in Ryukyu back then, and the affection he shared with the people of Ryukyu to fight against Japanese pirates has been exhausted.

Li Binyan said conclusively: "When these people came here, they didn't even think that Ryukyu is now the territory of Ming Dynasty, nor did they think that Ryukyu people are people from Ming Dynasty. They even did it on purpose."

Tang Xing was a little dazed. Hearing it all, it was all these dirty things in the officialdom. As for this little thing, why did Li Binyan go to Ryukyu himself?
One must know that Li Binyan is the governor of Songjiang and the Shuangsha of Nanya. How many things are waiting for Li Binyan to do?
How important is the Tianxia Department Store, the thoroughfare of Songjiang Prefecture?
"Beizhi?" Tang Xing leaned forward and asked softly, he only thought of this possibility.

Li Binyan stretched out his hand and said in a low voice, "Better."

"How courageous!" Tang Xing stood up abruptly, with a frightened expression on his face.

Knowing where the line drawn by His Majesty is, but still playing such a trick, isn't it courting death?

Not doing good deeds is incompetent, and undermining the national policy of Ming Dynasty is immoral.

People without virtue and incompetence, enjoying the salary of the country, eating the king's work, greedy for money and seeking profit, deserve to die, and even deliberately sabotage the national policy of Ming Dynasty to open the sea. Who will die if they don't die?

The current Majesty of Daming does not want to be the Khan of Heaven, let alone the Lord of All Kingdoms. The emperor of Daming once said that His Majesty is first and foremost His Majesty of Daming.

The scale in His Majesty's heart always leans towards Daming, there is no doubt about it, and it is also the reason why Ryukyu King Shang did not dare to sue before.

Ryukyu has just begun to be transformed into prefectures and counties, and His Majesty does have a policy preference for the new land, but his heart is still towards Daming.

If it weren't for His Majesty to go against the scales, these fourteen officials would probably still be exiled, but they wanted to die by themselves, so it's no wonder His Majesty.

Li Binyan signaled Tang Xing to stay calm, shook his head and said, "It's just a sign, I'm not worried, so I'll come and have a look."

On the contrary, it is an extremely terrifying method.

For example, raising the minimum labor remuneration of the Ryukyu Labor Insurance Bureau can immediately destroy the local soil workshops in Ryukyu, forcing the Ryukyu people to close the market and flee. The businesses of coconut oil, copra, coconut milk, and fish oil directly fall into the hands of Daming Marine hand.

For example, in the name of paying tribute to the matter of cutting down trees and building ships, the apportionment was increased several times. The process of cutting down trees and building ships was complicated, and the people complained a lot. There is a stage for traditional arts to be displayed.

For example, His Majesty unified weights and measures, currency, and writing in Ryukyu, and destroyed obscenity, but His Majesty never said that he would abolish the old money and Feiqian of the former Song Dynasty. Taking the opportunity to amass money wantonly, Ryukyu's financial affairs were as thin as a piece of paper and completely destroyed.

The best way to sabotage the New Deal is not to obey the law but to double down on it.

Li Binyan is often afraid of the coming winter order of Ming Dynasty. What the Ryukyu bureaucrats do is a kind of temptation. If the fury of thunder is not lowered, Li Binyan is afraid of this evil fire, which will burn everywhere from Ryukyu to Daming.

At that time, all the New Deals of His Majesty will be ruined.

Tang Xing finally understood why Li Binyan had received the imperial edict, so he pulled out the standing naval force of the Ming Dynasty with great fanfare to show off his power. The army is the ballast stone of the Ming Dynasty, and at this time it showed the role of the ballast stone.

No one in Ryukyu has the courage to compete with the navy outside Naha Port.

"Be careful, too. You've made such a big show to go out to sea. Isn't this giving someone a handle?" Tang Xing was still very worried about Li Binyan's safety. He knew that Li Binyan's danger definitely did not come from the enemies in front of him, but from those behind him. A young man who stabbed a knife in the dark.

Li Binyan turned his head to look at the Yongle Sword hanging behind him, and the most important thing was the imperial edicts.

The ostentation is given by His Majesty.

With the arrival of Li Binyan and the Daming Navy, the process of prefectures and counties has been pushed forward again.

At times the stubborn iron shines, and the gold loses its color when it is transported.

Daming's Xia Xu was quietly passing by, and almost everyone felt it.

The ships that can cover the sky and the sun outside Xingang are still moored in the port, motionless, and the ship certificates that were sought after in the past are actually left.

The caravans coming and going on the Guandaoyi Road gradually became less crowded than in the past, and the North-South Canal draw was no longer as busy as before. Then, it was heard that the life of the Miao people in Guizhou had changed, and the Ming army suppressed it several times, causing heavy casualties.

In the southwest direction, the establishment of the Chief Secretary of the Shaanxi Xingdu Division, which was originally planned to be launched, was nothing. The Ming Dynasty seemed to stop expanding westward.

The time of autumn seems to be very short. After the summer preface is full of vitality and everything is competing, it will be cold and windy winter.

At the beginning of October, the capital of the Ming Dynasty was covered in a thick layer of snow. This heavy snowfall lasted for three consecutive days, and it was still cloudy and there was no sign of stopping.

When the wind blows, the sky and the earth are full of snowflakes, and it is impossible to tell the difference between the south, the south, the north, and even the up and down.

"I don't agree!" Zhu Qiyu sat at the table of the Salt and Iron Conference, and said calmly: "Reducing the minimum standard of labor compensation for the Labor Insurance Bureau will only make this winter colder."

The salt and iron meeting was held as scheduled, and the winter that Li Binyan was worried about finally came.

Many officials at the meeting all looked like ice lumps outside the window. They thought that Li Binyan was not doing his job properly, looking up at the starry sky, and realized the bullshit theory of the order of the four seasons, which was just a cover to deceive Shengen.

Unexpectedly, Daming really ushered in the winter sequence.

At this time, all the lords of the imperial court are willing that the order of the four seasons is Li Binyan's cover to deceive Shengen.

However, everyone knows that the winter has come, and it is very difficult.

Wang Hu thought for a long time, how to refute His Majesty politely and respectfully, and after careful consideration, he said: "Your Majesty, if the minimum standard of labor remuneration is not lowered, a large number of workshops will close their doors and go out of business. At that time, there will be More people can't eat, especially in the land of the Fourteenth House of Nanya."

Lin Xiu also took out a memorial, handed it to Xing'an and said: "Your Majesty, according to the provincial accounting, reducing the labor remuneration by [-]% will allow at least [-]% of the craftsmen to work and eat."

At the long table, the ministers were whispering among each other, and the winter preface caused by the money shortage made everyone worried and helpless.

Wu Jing, who was in charge of the Hanlin Academy, looked at the inscription in his hand, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the Nanya Fourteenth Mansion is transforming from a small peasant economy to a commodity economy. It's not going to be easy."

Wu Jing has worked in accounting and taxation in Zhejiang for ten years, and he is very worried about the current situation.

Taking Jianyan as an example, an apprentice needs to study for at least three to five years before he can become a skilled worker, and a skilled worker needs at least ten years to be a master, and most of them have survived to this age, and it is time to prepare for their funeral.

The average age of Ming Dynasty at this time was less than 35 years old, and becoming a craftsman meant giving up farming, or losing land altogether.

Once a large number of workshops closed and the craftsmen went home to farm, the transformation of the Ming Dynasty from a small-scale peasant economy to a commodity economy became like a moon in the water, a flower in the mirror.

"Your Majesty, it's an expedient measure." After thinking about it for a while, Hu Wei expressed his position, and gave His Majesty a step down. His Majesty's basic color of governing is to put the people first. This kind of reduction of labor remuneration is obviously a part of injustice.

His Majesty must not bear the notoriety of being unjust, so the one who bears this notoriety is naturally the ministers. Hu Wei was the first to express his position, and the meaning was very clear.

Zhu Qiyu glanced at Hu Wei, and suddenly realized that this old fox had begun to lose the shrewdness and prudence of the past.

After death, there is a pile of loess to cover it, and while there is still breath and the head is not confused, do something.

Chen Mao and the other generals did not speak, but sat upright, waiting for His Majesty's decision. At this moment, the army is Daming's ballast, and their silence is the best answer. They will do whatever His Majesty asks them to do.

Zhu Qiyu looked around, looked at Yu Qian, knocked on the table with his fingers and asked, "Does Yu Shaobao have any ideas?"

As soon as Zhu Qiyu's words came out, Juxian Pavilion immediately fell silent. Juxian Pavilion is a warm pavilion, and the ground fire is very hot, but the officials only felt a gust of cold wind blowing in the warm pavilion, and the timid ones fought Cold war, looking at His Majesty in the middle and Yu Shaobao on the left with horror.

Ling Dong has arrived, if His Majesty and Yu Shaobao are separated and will start to quarrel, will there be a tomorrow for Daming?

Yu Qian is the Shaobao, the head of the hundred officials, the one who is in charge of the leader, and his innocence is extremely prestigious among the hundreds of officials;
Moreover, he is the Marquis of Wen'an of the Ming Dynasty. Although he is not as noble as the Duke of the State, Yu Shaobao has always been in charge of the capital camp that the Ming Dynasty can fight the most;

The most important thing is that since His Majesty ascended the throne, in almost all the battles, Yu Qian has been the governor of military affairs, and his military achievements have shined through!
However, lowering the minimum standard of labor remuneration at the moment is an act of unrighteousness. Your Majesty asked Yu Qian what he thought, but simply asked Yu Qian what he thought?Or do you want Yu Qian to come out to fight against thunder?Or is it because His Majesty has long been dissatisfied with Yu Qian's too much power and intends to take power?
In connection with Lixiang some time ago, He Zhang immediately stood up to oppose Lixiang after visiting Jiuzhongtang, but in the end there was no Lixiang, and his timid teeth were trembling.

Zhu Qiyu immediately found out that something was wrong, because it was really too quiet. Whatever happened in the past, Zhu Qiyu would ask Yu Shaobao what he thought in front of everyone, but today, the appearance of the officials, Let Zhu Qiyu taste a bit of taste.

The catastrophe is imminent.

Yu Qian is honest and upright, not stupid. On the contrary, he was promoted to his position as an upright official. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as humane and sophisticated. He immediately understood everyone's worries.

"Your Majesty, my minister is dull and has no good strategy. There is no way to achieve the best of both worlds. The best policy is to reduce [-]% to make the people safe." Yu Qian expressed his thoughts without hesitation, without weighing his own interests, and without thinking about his posthumous name.

The ministers heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Yu Qian's words. Yu Qian was still the same Yu Qian, Yu Shaobao who was willing to block a knife for His Majesty, and Yu Qian who was not good at protecting himself wisely, who was outspoken and willing to resist thunder.

This is not the first time Yu Qian has done this. Yu Qian has always had this attitude. His Majesty can do whatever he wants, and the world will rebel against him. The common people are outraged.

For Yu Qian, from beginning to end, Daming Jiangshan Sheji is the most important.

Thousands of hammers dug out of the mountains, and the fire burned as if it were idle.

I am not afraid of being shattered, and I must leave my innocence in the world.

Hu Yan stared at Yu Qian with his beard blowing, and he took the initiative to stand up. Yu Qian could actually push the boat on him.

Zhu Qiyu stretched out his hand and patted it. The loud voice attracted the attention of the officials, and he said with a smile: "Yu Shaobao has a good policy, and I have a good policy. You should listen to my words."

If Yu Qian has always been the Yu Qian who is shattered and fearless, then His Majesty has always been the very capable Majesty.

The ministers looked at His Majesty with probing eyes. At this time, what else can His Majesty do?
