The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

In fact, it is about the method proposed by Zhang Fan.The reason why Queen Mother Li hesitated.Not without reason.Just like when Zhang Fan and Zhang Juzheng just mentioned this matter.Zhang Juzheng also hesitated.

It's not that Zhang Fan's method is bad.Quite the opposite.Zhang Fan's method is definitely a good one.If this method can be used.Not to mention how much money can be saved for the court.The main thing is.It can detect in time whether someone dares to be corrupt.And it can allow the court to respond and adjust in a timely manner.If so.Many things are very easy to handle.

But.The reason why he hesitated.But there are also reasons.

because.It seems that the Chinese have been doing things since ancient times.Always like a little bit.That's all there is to it.certainly.People who dare to gamble in this world.There are naturally many people who dare to do business without capital.but.That kind of person either makes a lot of money.Or lose cleanly.But for the imperial court.To manage such a vast territory.And there are such a huge number of people under the rule.

It is precisely because this kind of involvement is too huge.So as a court.when making any decision.It's all about being careful.I would rather take more detours.But I can't afford a little mistake.

This situation is reflected in the matter of silver.That is to uphold a concept.When doing anything, you have to be ready for everything.on silver.If water conservancy is to be built there.It took ten years.What was spent was 100 million taels.But if the imperial court can't come up with 100 million taels of silver at this time.Then don't do it.That is.You have to wait until all the money you need to spend in ten years is collected.just start doing it.But never thought of it.Take out 10 taels a year.That would be so much easier.

This situation.It sounds like you are extremely insecure about yourself.However, this is not the case with implementation.But there are too many things that the imperial court needs to consider.and.The future is indeed full of uncertain factors.Maybe 10 taels can be taken out this year.But who can know.Wait until next year to see if something will happen.Can the 10 taels be taken out smoothly?

And now.That is the case.Zhang Fan came up with such a solution.And Zhang Juzheng who just heard about this method.I was a little hesitant at first.But it didn't take long.He also agreed.And Feng Bao didn't think about whether he agrees with him or whether he can do it.As long as he thinks this method is good.Of course he would agree.Don't go back to think about other issues at all.

But.The problem came to Queen Mother Li.But it's stuck.and.It's not that she thinks differently from others.In fact, when Zhang Fan just mentioned this method.Queen Mother Li thought for a while.I also understand in my heart.Zhang Fan's method is absolutely good.If it is really possible to do so.Not only can we find out those corrupt officials in time.And it can save a lot of money for the court.This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

But Queen Mother Li still hesitated.after all.He is different from people like Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao.She is, after all, a power-holder.Although it is a bit too advanced to say now.But she is the one in power.while possessing power.There is also a responsibility.certainly.Don't get me wrong.This so-called responsibility is not a responsibility to the world or to the people.But to the Ming Dynasty.Responsibility to the descendants of the Zhu family.Of course.In the final analysis, this responsibility is also a matter of achieving the same goal by different routes.

but.It is precisely because of this responsibility.Let her treat nothing.Especially when it is such a national event.Be careful and be careful.on this point.It is absolutely not negotiable.

And it is precisely because of her care.This is how it is now.Now it's not that the imperial court can't come up with the 100 million taels.It doesn't mean that if you follow Zhang Fan's method.Give 50 taels first.And another two months.The other 50 taels will not come out.In short.that possible scenario.It's not going to happen now.But even so.She is still due.

Queen Mother.Said it was the queen mother.But Li Caifeng is not even 30 years old this year.But now.On that magnificent but majestic face.His brows were furrowed.It's really unbearable to look at.

"Wei Chen understands what the Queen Mother is thinking." Zhang Fan said.He wasn't talking nonsense either.He really understood what Empress Dowager Li was thinking.so.He just had to push her. "The reason why Weichen proposed such a method is not nonsense. I have thought about the problems in it. Weichen has thought it through carefully. He thinks it is feasible, so he will say it."

"The Ai family understands what Taifu means. The benefits of this method. The Ai family also understands." Empress Dowager Li said. "It's just that this dynasty has never done this before. Moreover, not only this dynasty, but the previous dynasties have never done this. This time, the Ai family also understands. There is no problem with doing so. The Ai family is just afraid. This time the precedent is set. In case of such a situation in the future, the court can’t pay all the money for a while. It’s done like this. If there is any shortage in the future, there will be some troubles in the future.”

Empress Dowager Li really deserves to be a model of the Empress Dowager.She doesn't just think about her son.It is also for the sake of this dynasty.Hope it continues.It's better not to encounter any troubles in the future.

And Zhang Fan who heard these words.Really respect her.

But awe is one side.But this thing.He still has to talk.after all.This era has been put on the road of development.This great country may be able to rely on its laurels to remain the number one in the world in the next few decades or even hundreds of years.But further on.

If it is in the future that this safe way of doing things will slow down the pace of development.Zhang Fan absolutely does not want to see this kind of thing.

"The empress dowager's worries. I understand." Zhang Fan said. "But if you do that. In fact, you don't need to worry about those things in the future."

"Oh. Taifu said so..." Empress Dowager Li heard what Zhang Fan said.Can't help but ask.

"Just think about it, Queen Mother." Zhang Fan explained. "If we can do this in the future. With the new law of Mr. Zhang. And now, the tax revenue of the imperial court is also greatly improved than before. Then in the future, the silver of the imperial court will only increase. It will not increase. Less. And if this is the case, corrupt officials will also be greatly reduced. Although, this method can only restrain people from doing so, but it cannot restrain people's hearts. But in my opinion, these two things are The same. The key is not whether the officials below want to be corrupt, but whether they are corrupt or not.

"Moreover. I believe it. I don't mention this kind of natural disaster. If it is a normal situation that requires money, I don't have to worry about it."

"Yeah. That's what the Tutor said." Empress Dowager Li nodded.Said. "It's just that Ai's family still has some doubts. Even if Ai's family intends to do this, how should they tell the people below. If they don't say anything, I'm afraid the people below will make wild guesses. If the time comes and people are upset because of this matter If you are stable. Wouldn’t it be contrary to the original intention? If you do something wrong with good intentions, don’t say it. It also makes things more difficult.”

"The Empress Dowager is very considerate," Zhang Fan said. "This matter. Wei Chen has also thought about it. But Wei Chen has thought about it for a long time, but he has not found a safe solution. But in the end, Wei Chen thinks. Rather than just hiding it like this, let the officials below make wild guesses But people’s hearts are unstable; or they say it in a subtle way. It makes people feel even more uneasy. It’s better to tell them clearly like this.”

"Just say it like that." Empress Dowager Li was very surprised by what Zhang Fan said.She thought that Zhang Fan already had a solution.Also thought about what it might be.But she never thought of it.Zhang Fan will come up with such a solution in the end.How could this not surprise her.

"Yes. Wei Chen thinks, just say it like that." Zhang Fan said. "Instead of saying nothing and letting the officials below guess whether there is any difficulty in the court and make people's hearts unstable; or just a few words. It makes people unable to understand. It is better to just say it so straightforward."

"How should I say it?" Queen Mother Li did not ask rhetorically.I really didn't quite understand what Zhang Fan meant. "That's the decree. Now the imperial court only gives money for water control. After the water control is completed, the money for reconstruction will be allocated. The reason is that people below will be corrupt and fill their pockets. I'm afraid it's not appropriate. Don't wait until the time comes. There are a few guys who stand up for fame and reputation and make irresponsible remarks. Although they may have problems themselves, but the court can’t say anything without evidence. Then what troubles will arise.”

"Of course. I can't speak so bluntly." Zhang Fan said with a smile. "On the edict. It must be more tactful. But it can't be too tactful. It's fine for people not to understand."

"Queen Mother." Zhang Juzheng on the side spoke. "Weichen also thinks this method is feasible. Let alone the benefits of it. I don't talk about anything else. People who like to write this kind of thing are very easy to find. At that time, as long as the writing is more tactful, it can be done." Let people understand. What is the meaning in it?"

"In that case..." Empress Dowager Li looked determined.Said. "Then let's do it like this. And, since Zhang Aiqing also said that, Zhang Aiqing should draft this edict. But after it's done, it has to be shown to the Ai family."

I heard Queen Mother Li say so.Zhang Juzheng was a little dumbfounded.He replied: "My minister obeys the order." He really didn't expect it.I just agree with it casually.Unexpectedly, he took the job to himself.

But anyway.today.Many people have achieved their wishes.certainly.Some are really achieved.And some feel accomplished.
