Daming: Let you do your best to manage, do you go to health?

Chapter 55 Shouldn't these government affairs be handed over to the cabinet?
Seeing that the desired result was achieved, Zhu Zhanji's face suddenly changed, and he walked over shyly.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight for more free time, but that he knows the truth of accepting as soon as he sees a good deal, otherwise the talk will collapse for an hour.

"Grandpa, tell me, grandson, listen."

Seeing the speed at which his eldest grandson changed his face, Zhu Di almost didn't realize it, and couldn't help cursing: "Stinky boy, are you a dog? You changed your face so quickly."

However, after scolding, the old man still taught carefully, but he was silent for a moment, and after thinking about it, he said: "What did you just say? I have forgotten about you, Grandpa."

But after thinking about it carefully, the old man continued: "If you want to know why grandpa can make the country prosper without managing the government himself, you must first figure out what a country is."

"Da Ming, is it the territory under its current jurisdiction, or the people under its rule?"

Listening to the old man's words, Zhu Zhanji thought for a while and replied: "Naturally, it is the people under the rule."

The old man nodded in satisfaction: "Since it is the people under the rule, it is a human problem, and there are two words, interests."

"By the way, there is a saying that the prosperity of the world is for profit, and the chaos of the world is for profit. This is the truth. And our court, to put it bluntly, is a place that governs the people under it. At the same time It is also a place to distribute benefits. We distribute all the resources in this world through the court's laws and regulations, some for the common people, some for the gentry, and some for the generals."

"Which part of this link is unevenly distributed, there will be problems. If the taxes on the people are high, the people will not survive, and they will rebel. If there is no imperial examination, those talented scholars will have no promotion channels, and they will Dissatisfied. There are also generals and soldiers who are brave. If the military merit system is unfair and the soldiers don’t die on the battlefield, the country will not be peaceful.”

Speaking of this, Zhu Di said proudly: "As an emperor, what you need to do is to steer the helm. It is enough to let the big ship of Ming Dynasty move forward smoothly. As for those government affairs, there are so many capable people in the world, so it is difficult to let them all go unused." ?Your great-grandpa is good at everything, but I can’t understand this point. After working hard for decades, otherwise, with his body and bones, it would not be a problem to live another seven or eight years.”

Seeing that the old man was full of ambition and commented on his father's appearance, Zhu Zhanji curled his lips: "If there is no great grandfather who can wipe out the powerful nobles in the court for you, and give the Zhongshu province who can threaten the imperial power to you!" Dismissed, and rested with the people for more than [-] years, do you think you can feel at ease here as the Marshal of Peking University?"

However, although Zhu Zhanji thought so in his heart, he still showed a look of admiration on his face, and said: "Grandpa is right, and my grandson also thinks this is true. If so many government affairs are handled by the emperor , I’m so exhausted, how can I still think about big strategies every day.”

"I just said that these things are still understood by grandpa, like my father and my great-grandfather sometimes get into the horns. Grandpa, do you think these government affairs are handed over to the cabinet?"

As soon as Zhu Zhanji's words came out, Zhu Di's expression changed instantly.

On a whim, he told his grandson the way of being a king, but why did he get himself involved.

After finally holding this kid here, how could he let him go so easily.

For a while, I quickly thought about the way to make up for it.

"Ahem, so what, can you compare with grandpa? Grandpa can't handle those government affairs, grandpa can, but he doesn't handle them. You are still young now, and it is time for you to practice a lot in handling government affairs. You kid can't slack off."

But Zhu Zhanji finally found the reason for the old man's words, how could he let it go so easily, and hurriedly said: "Don't, grandpa and grandson will do it too, but they just don't want to deal with it."

Hearing this, Zhu Di suddenly laughed.

"You will? If there are no people from the Imperial Academy and the cabinet to give you advice, can you handle these government affairs? In this way, grandpa can ask a few questions casually, and if you can answer them well, grandpa will let you have a day at leisure."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji's eyes suddenly showed surprise: "Really?"

Zhu Di said confidently, "Naturally."

"Okay! Grandpa, you ask!"

Seeing that his eldest grandson was so confident, Zhu Di couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, but since he had already made a promise, he naturally couldn't go back on his word.Of course, you can't let this kid win, or else will you lose face as a grandfather?
Casual government affairs must not be done. This kid has a quick brain, and it would be bad if he happened to give an answer.But what question should be asked? Zhu Di was really entangled for a while.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di paced back and forth in the hall.

After thinking about it, just when he was at a loss, a dead end that had troubled him for a long time but could not figure out a solution suddenly popped up in his mind.

Zhu Di's eyes lit up immediately.

After making up his mind, Zhu Di smiled and looked at his eldest grandson, and said, "Since you think you can stand on the bow and steer the boat like your grandfather, then my grandfather asks you, now the Ming Dynasty is governed by my grandfather and grandfather for decades. Now, it can be regarded as recovery, and the food in the country is enough for the people besides the tax, but why are the people in this world still starving to death everywhere?"

Hearing the old man's question, Zhu Zhanji didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Our dynasty implements a two-tax system. Although it is not too high compared with previous dynasties, grandpa has conquered the north for many years, repaired the Grand Canal, and moved the capital. The cost is very high. The government collects a lot of taxes. Under the circumstances of uneven distribution of land in the world, increasing land pollution and corruption in the officialdom, many people have no reliable livelihood at all, but the tax revenue is increasing day after year year after year With the daily expropriation, the conditions of the people will naturally get worse and worse, and it is not surprising that they will starve to death in the countryside in the end.”

Zhu Zhanji answered so quickly that Zhu Di couldn't react.

But when Zhu Di carefully savored the meaning of Zhu Zhanji's words, he found that the words between Zhu Zhanji's words accurately hit the point.

But what you said was correct, but what you said made Zhu Di unhappy, and he couldn't help scolding angrily: "Stinky boy, are you changing the way to say that your grandfather and I have brought trouble on the people? It's just like your father. A virtue."

Seeing that the old man misunderstood, Zhu Zhanji hurriedly replied: "Grandpa, you think too much, grandson didn't mean that. Don't say what grandpa did is now, even if it is hundreds of years later, no one can blame it. What. Fighting for the country, deterring northern Xinjiang for decades, these are not bad things. But on the other hand, the government’s finances are indeed overwhelmed by this. If you want to solve this problem, it’s not like grandpa can’t solve it without going to war of."
