Daming: My brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 284 If you don't want to, then treat it as a traitorous minister and accomplice, and kill them together!

Zhang Gui looked at the silent ministers of the Planning Department and said: "It is true that this will make many dignitaries and garrison officers unacceptable, but otherwise, it is not enough to revive the Ming Dynasty. What Your Majesty said is to share the world with the Han people." It can’t just be as simple as talking about it, it needs to be determined. This is not showing great kindness. It is because the country has reached this point, and it really needs to correct the world style and strengthen the imperial court’s ability to control and dispatch the world’s human and financial resources in the name of saving more common people. ability!"

"Daming is a centralized dynasty of great unity, not a dynasty of feudal feudal feudal lords who are ruled by aristocrats and families. Therefore, the wealth of the world is distributed by it, and the common people of the world are also raised and distributed by it, and they are responsible for the rise and fall of the country. responsibilities. The rich and powerful gentry cannot occupy manpower and financial resources for their own use, but they do not bear the responsibility for their rise and fall.”

Zhang Gui then added another sentence.

Chen Zizhuang sighed first, and said: "All the wealth in the world has flowed into the hands of the imperial court. It is true that the imperial court is responsible for raising the common people in the world. It is indeed inappropriate to keep Han people as slaves. After all, all Han people in the world are from the imperial court. People should be hired with money. The court also needs to be able to organize more manpower to strengthen the country and enrich the people. I echo what Uncle Guo said."

"The minister also seconded the proposal. As Uncle Guo said, now the court needs to make a big decision to concentrate manpower for use by the court, rather than as a resource to maintain the luxurious life of the gentry."

Yuan Keli also echoed that. For him, if the Industrial Division's iron mines decrease due to insufficient human resources, and the Industrial Division cannot be maintained, it means that the reforms they presided over will fail in all aspects.

This is unacceptable to him, so he is also willing to accept the reform of the military system, give freedom to military households, and prohibit keeping Han people as slaves.

The other policy ministers all agreed.

Because Daming has to make such a choice now.

Unless you go back, give up the Industrial Division, give up reforms, and use massacres to reduce the population.

Therefore, the officials of the reform faction of the Department of Policy and Policy had to agree.

Tian Qi didn't deny it either, and said: "Then the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households will submit the test book, and then implement this matter."

"According to the order!"

Therefore, shortly thereafter, regulations to reform the guard system, prohibit slavery, and regulate the adoption of children were promulgated one after another.

For a time, the ruling and opposition parties were in an uproar.

"It's restructuring again! Is the imperial court planning to continue on the road of restructuring?! Why do the rulers like to make troubles so much!"

Wang Chengyun, the chief soldier of the Xuan Mansion, could not help complaining in a low voice after seeing the imperial edict through the mansion newspaper.

This is also normal, and such things as reform will always hurt the interests of some people.

The reform of the guard system undoubtedly harmed the interests of border town officers like Wang Chengyun.

Although he served as a battalion officer, he was promoted to a battalion officer by inheriting the official position of the guard.

For Wang Chengyun, reforming the Weisuo system and no longer setting up military households is tantamount to letting him admit that he no longer legally enslaves military households under his name.

This is naturally unacceptable to him.

Counselor Zhang Xiong was also quite dissatisfied and said: "In the final analysis, it is because His Majesty wants to rejuvenate and even restore the great achievements of the Han and Tang Dynasties. That's why such a series of reforms have been carried out. First, it is to win the world's benefits, and now it is to win the world's benefits." He is dissatisfied with the fact that military households are only used by us!"

"You are right. It is precisely because he wants to rejuvenate that the ancestors and other generals in Liaodong have been punished by the nine clans, and they are not allowed to support the bandits. Now we have to reform the Weisuo system, abolish the military household system, and jointly He also abolished the medical household registration system and low-level registration system, and it is clear that he wants more people to contribute to his great cause of ZTE.”

When Wang Chengyun agreed, he said angrily: "How come such an emperor who is determined to innovate! Stand down and rule, and be his ruler, isn't it good?!"

In a dynasty ruled by Confucian civilization, in the middle and late stages, its ruling class lacks aggressiveness as a whole, and even generals lack the motivation to make contributions.

Because their common identity is the landlord.

Landlords will lack the motivation to make progress in the later stage.

Therefore, even if an individual emperor wants to forge ahead, he will not get too many supporters.

Wang Chengyun and Zhang Xiong are also the same kind of people now. They don't want the emperor to forge ahead, they don't want the emperor to reform, and they don't care whether the country can flourish and prosper, even surpassing any powerful dynasty in history.

They refuse to change and just want to live a life of peace, prosperity and peace.

After all, as landlords, they can obtain abundant food resources and human resources without changing.

But Tianqi and his courtiers have already embarked on the step of reform and reform, so they are destined to be unable to stop, because they don't want to just have a lot of silver and not be able to exchange the silver for more wealth.

What's more, Tianqi and his favorites really need to control more human resources now, and then organize people to seize the food and iron ore they desperately need.

In short, after Tianqi and his courtiers possessed a large amount of capital, they began to instinctively want to use the capital in their hands to obtain more profits.

This is out of their own control.

Therefore, not long after that, Xinghesuo in Xuanfu Town was changed to Xinghe County.

Yang Xiuchun, a sentry officer who had retired from the Guards and graduated from the Military Academy, was transferred from a military position to a civilian position, and began to serve as the prefect of the state.

Wang Chengyun originally planned to run his younger brother to serve as the Qianhu Office after the vacancy of the Qianhu Office in Xinghe, but he did not expect that the imperial court would no longer set up guards and turn Xinghe into a guard house. Xinghe Prefecture was established, and a new magistrate was appointed.

Wang Chengyun was even more dissatisfied because of this, and sent someone to invite Zhang Xiong again, and secretly discussed: "Now it seems that the imperial court really wants to change the guards and abolish the military households. Do we really want to see the ancestral system being destroyed? Can military households wait for the side generals for me?"

Zhang Xiong knew what Wang Chengyun was thinking, so he cooperated and said: "It must be caused by treacherous ministers in the court! It must be the Qing emperor's side!"

Wang Chengyun nodded after hearing this, and said: "I have sent people to ask General Bing Qu of Datong and General Zhu of Shanxi, and they also said the same."

Zhang Xiong echoed: "My cousin who served as the general soldier in Yansui and Zhu general soldier in Guyuan also said the same, and Wang general soldier in Ningxia also wanted to side with the Qing emperor. Only the man general soldier in Jizhou didn't make any statement. He It should be because of the kindness of my uncle Zhang Gui's support and support, and I don't want to express my opinion."

Wang Chengyun said: "It seems that among the nine towns, there are at least six town commanders who are willing to side with the Qing emperor, and great things may be accomplished."

Zhang Xiong asked: "It's just how to contact? Discuss about raising troops together."

Wang Chengyun said: "I have already thought of a way. You are a general in Zhangjiakou Fort. You have always been familiar with the Mongols. You entrust the Mongols to contact the commanders of the various sides. As for the governors and censors of the various sides, if they If you are willing to clear the king's side together, you will naturally push them to take the lead, and if they don't want to, just kill them."

Zhang Xiong nodded: "Good!"

So, two months later, Zhang Xiong came to find Wang Chengyun again: "They agreed to go to the side of the Qing Dynasty together, and killed Yang He, governor of the three sides, Geng Ruqi, governor of Shanxi, and Zhang Yiming, governor of Datong, and led [-] soldiers to Xuanfu first."

After hearing this, Wang Chengyun asked, "Where are Governor Hu Tingyan of Guyuan and Governor Yue Hesheng of Yansui?"

Zhang Xiong replied: "Wish to raise troops with us to clear the king's side."

Wang Chengyun nodded: "That's good! Next, let's go see Guo Zhongcheng."

The Guo Zhongcheng mentioned by Wang Chengyun refers to Guo Zhicong, the current governor of Xuanfu.

As soon as Guo Zhicong saw Wang Chengyun and Zhang Xiong appearing with their servants, he asked, "Why did you two see me?"

"The treacherous ministers of the imperial court are in power, and the ancestral system is being severely damaged. We specially invite Zhongcheng to join us in Qing Dynasty."

Wang Chengyun said.

Guo Zhicong was shocked when he heard this: "How dare you? This is a serious crime for exterminating the nine races!"

Zhang Xiong directly drew out his knife and pointed at Guo Zhicong: "Now I just ask Zhongcheng if you are willing. If you are willing, we are still willing to listen to Zhongcheng's restraint. If not, we can only treat Zhongcheng as a traitor and a party. And kill!"
