After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

The next day, Zhu Yuanzhang held a banquet outside the Hall of Preservation and Harmony.

There was an endless stream of ministers who came to congratulate and give gifts, as many as a thousand people came.The outside of the hall was very lively, with huge crowds of people, and big Hongfu signs representing celebration were hung everywhere.

Apart from Empress Ma, besides Zhu Yuanzhang, there was also Concubine Zheng for the first time.

After all, she had to be there today.

Concubine Zheng was moved to tears, it was rare for her to see the emperor before, and the emperor had not summoned her for several years.But today, because of his daughter, he got the chance to sit beside the emperor.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang let her be with him only for the sake of face, and he was still indifferent to her in his heart.

Concubine Zheng also knew it well.

Marrying the emperor is rich, but not happy.Especially the unfavored concubine, who doesn't even have personal freedom, and the space for activities is only her own palace.

Sugar daddies who marry wealthy families are happier than them,

Sugar daddies and those who marry wealthy families can also keep a handsome face to make up for the emptiness in life and spirit. They can also go shopping for afternoon tea or something, and regard flaunting wealth as a life.

"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!"

Civil servants and generals raised their glasses to congratulate Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded and smiled to accept their congratulations.

After a while, officials from the Ministry of Rites presented the list of gifts.

After Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the gift list, he said to Empress Ma next to him, "Liu Bowen sent the authentic works of Li Bai, Gao Qi and Song Lian, and also sent precious ancient books of calligraphy and painting of famous people."

"In line with their status as scholars."

"These are the bottom of the box, which shows their respect for the gentleman." Empress Ma said.From whether the gifts are given with care, it can be seen that they support the New Deal.

What Xu Da gave was the phoenix hairpin headdress for the princess that he snatched from the palace of the Yuan Dynasty during the Northern Expedition, which was very thoughtful.

The six princes and 26 marquises who founded the Ming Dynasty all gave heavy gifts.

What Li Shanchang gave was also a heavy gift! ?
When he turned to the second page of the gift list from Huaixi nobles, Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned: it said that Li Shanchang gave him the Go that he had treasured for many years, and the gifts from other nobles were also very thoughtful and heavy.

This group of people changed their attitude towards Qin Yu?

Zhu Yuanzhang became puzzled, and couldn't help but look at Li Shanchang beside him.

"Report to the superior." Seeing this, Li Shanchang took the opportunity to say, "To be honest, when the emperor implemented the public land system before, the old minister was actually a little reluctant in his heart."

"But after thinking about it carefully, this is a major event that benefits the country and the people. Since the public land system is beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, we, the courtiers, must unconditionally support it."

"Didn't you say before you came to power that all our land would be taken over to the public after 50 years? The veteran felt that 50 years was too long and should be taken back to the public right away."

"Therefore, the old minister is willing to take the lead and immediately donate all the fertile land that he has acquired. Please send someone to measure the land immediately, and then take it back to the public for allocation."

"Are you willing to take out the good land!?" After hearing what Li Shanchang said, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't believe his ears.In the past, didn't this group of people regard fertile land as their lifeblood?

How did you switch sex today?

Li Shanchang is the eldest brother of the Huaixi gang, if he is willing to take out the fertile land, it proves that the other Huaixi nobles will follow in his footsteps, taking out all the fertile land they received as rewards and handing them over to the imperial court for management.

It's a great thing!
In the past, Zhu Yuanzhang did not take strong measures to collect the fertile land in their hands, because he did not want to do it because of their previous achievements.At the same time, because the attack area is too large, almost all the heroes are spread, so they dare not act rashly.

But today, they were able to take the initiative to hand it over, allowing him to realize the nationalization of the land without spending a single soldier or fighting against the heroes.

Is there anything in the world that makes him more comfortable than this.

Through talking about the past and the present with Qin Yu, he has now deeply realized the importance of the imperial court controlling the land.That is the basis for preventing the feudal nobles from annexing the land, and it can prevent them from growing infinitely.

The annexation of land is the root cause of the confusion of the imperial court. If this matter is resolved, the greatest hidden danger of the imperial court will be resolved.In the past dynasties, didn't the princes and ministers own large tracts of fertile land?

Now Li Shanchang and other honorable ministers of the dynasty take the initiative to return the fertile land to the court and take back the fertile land of the gentry and nobles in other places.

That is to say, the settlement of the six lords and 26 marquises is tantamount to the full realization of public ownership of land.

Solved his biggest heart disease.

I think Wang Mang was resigned because he violated the interests of the gentry and nobles by implementing the public land system.Zhu Yuanzhang accomplished what Wang Mang failed to do without any effort.

Can't help getting excited: "Shanchang, you have been with us for nearly 20 years, and we have always regarded you as a big brother in these 20 years. Today, it seems that you, a big brother, really have the demeanor of a kind and generous elder."

"Thank you for your compliment, these are what us courtiers should do." Li Shan said long.

"In our opinion, you are old and vigorous, not old at all!" Zhu Yuanzhang said, "The gift you gave today is the best gift we have ever received!"

"Thank you sir."

Li Shanchang also heard that the subtext of Emperor Zhu's words is that you can work in the position of Youcheng of Zhongshu Province for a few more years without returning home.

Thinking about it before, Emperor Zhu deliberately misrepresented his age, which was already tantamount to expressly asking him to be a virtuous person.

Compared with today's situation, it is completely different, so he said with emotion: "The old minister has followed the superior for nearly 20 years, and he can't do without the superior." There was no conflict of interest, and the mutual feelings returned instantly.

"This is great." Empress Ma also said: "In the future, you can be a role model for a pair of monarchs and ministers through the ages." After all, she has been together for decades, and she also has affection for Li Shanchang.

Wouldn't it be good to let Big Brother stay in Yingtian Mansion? Why did he have to drive him away?

Empress Ma also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was not a cold-blooded person. If it wasn't for the Ming Dynasty, if there was no conflict of interest between the emperor and his ministers, why would Emperor Zhu kill those heroes?
Is it fun to kill hometown kids?

"Good at it, tell me, you guys, what do you want us to reward you?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.I also knew in my heart that they were willing to take out all the fertile land they got, and it must not be as simple as simply "supporting the new government policy".

"The old minister has a nephew who has always been obsessed with the ways of merchants. He wants to make money in business and contribute business taxes to the court." Li Shan said long, "I plan to buy ocean-going ships and seek development overseas."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood their intentions. It turned out that those nobles in Huaixi wanted to transform.

"The income from the grain produced by the land is far less than the income from commerce and trade. Li Shanchang must have seen this. I have to say that this old guy still has a very unique vision and is not stuck in the past." He secretly thought,
