Although what King Ping said was simple, it was the most realistic and cruel thing.

Although the current Daming looks stable on the whole, it is full of dangers and is not peaceful everywhere. If it is not scattered all over the place, like fireflies, it is not conspicuous, but if it is connected in one piece on the map, it will definitely shock the jaws of countless people!

Zhu Xu soaked in the water, laughed, his mind turned, and said: "Tell me about the situation in Bei'an Nan."

King Ping glanced at Zhu Xu, and said: "The situation in North Annan is much better than I expected before. The land is not the wasteland of Liaodong, it has been reclaimed and planted, and it can be sown with a little planning, but many people don't want it. Get used to the climate there, there are more miasma, it is easy to die, and you have to slowly find a way... The immigration is slow because of this, but after this year, it should be much easier. There is no problem in accepting 200 million people a year. As long as the court has enough money and food..."

In the past, it took two or three years for the immigrants to be self-sufficient. During this period, a considerable part of it needed to be paid and supported by the court.

"Master Wen is going to set fire to the forest. What I mean is to cut it down slowly. After all, firewood is worth some money..."

"Master Wen is still very capable, he treats North Annan equally, basically there is no trouble, it is very peaceful..."

"North Annan is basically no threat. It is separated from Nanzhang and others by mountains. It is very similar to Liaodong. The only problem is Nan Annan. Lord Wen is very worried about Nan Annan. He said that Dorgon is not my kind, and his heart must be different……"

"I'm also worried about this, but Dorgon does things properly and relieved us of a lot of worries. He has half of the credit for the stability of North Annan..."

"Nan Annan also sends 30 shi of grain and [-] silver to my ministers every year. I don't want any benefits..."

Zhu Xu could hear that King Ping and Wen Tiren were still very worried about Dorgon, they were full of vigilance, and nodded slightly to signal King Ping to continue.

King Ping can be regarded as a man of great wisdom and stupidity. His great wisdom does not mean his ability is strong. He talks about things in a mess.

It's no wonder that he, the prince of Fengyue who has been half-life, suddenly asked him to do worldly affairs, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing.

Zhu Xu slowly analyzed his words, nodding from time to time.

The situation in North Annan is better than he expected. This year is the first time immigrating and cannot accept many people. But with the foundation of this year, it will not be a problem to accept 500 million people in the next three years.By that time, the pressure on Shanchuan and other places will be greatly reduced. After a few years, Liaodong has almost digested it, and other places can continue to immigrate, which will not only enrich the desolate border areas and consolidate the territory, but also alleviate internal disasters. Survive the small glacier with the least loss.

"Well, next, we can all take it easy."

Zhu Xu thought about it, and said with a smile.

Now everything is on the right track, as long as the imperial court proceeds step by step, whether it is the "New Deal", "military reform" or getting through the disaster, it will be easy, and there is no need to work hard and worry like before.

Chapter 1079

In the second year of Jingzheng, August [-]th.

Bi Ziyan, Zuo Cifu of the cabinet, visited Jiangsu in person, sat in Yingtianfu, and was the governor of the Yamen.

Bi Ziyan stood in the middle of the hall, holding a golden imperial decree in his hand, with a deadpan face and stern eyes.

Standing in front of him were almost all the officials of the sixth grade and above in Jiangsu, including the Governor's Yamen, Governor's Mansion, Governor's Council, Dali Temple, colleges, and prefects of various prefectures, there were more than 50 officials!

Fang Kongxuan and Lu Qin stood at the front, followed by Xu Jie and Feng Jiangfeng, followed by Wang Beicheng from the Governor's Council, Tao Yongxiu from Dali Temple, Jiang Yicheng from the Provincial Academy, etc., all dressed in official uniforms, standing solemnly.

They stood in front of Bi Ziyan, with tense and dignified expressions.

Fang Kongzhang came back for three days first, and had already summoned various departments and officials to talk, explain and communicate repeatedly, and then he barely suppressed it. Now, the official order has arrived.

Up to now, everyone knows what the imperial decree in Bi Ziyan's hand is written, and also knows what it means to Jiang Zuo, the brother of the humanistic Fei Cui.

They felt the same way, and there was a sense of despair and coldness in the air.

Bi Ziyan looked at this group of people with a heavy heart. As soon as this decree came out, it would inevitably set off a majestic storm in Nanzhili. It is not yet known how long it will extend and what kind of consequences it will bring to Daming.

However, it is already the best result for him to win the decree. If it were someone else, I don't know how bad it would be.

Bi Ziyan looked majestic, held up the imperial edict, and said in a deep voice: "Jiangsu officials accept the edict!"

Fang Kongxuan and others knelt down in response, and said: "I will accept the order."

More than 50 people knelt in the lobby, even though they already knew the content of the imperial decree, they still couldn't help shaking and feeling terrified.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's edict said: I practice virtue and virtue, and I suddenly ascended to the throne. I am not as powerful as the ancestors, and my virtue is not as good as my father and brother. Wang Ming regards the common people as humble dogs, the family, the country and the society are nothing, the people are in trouble, and the world is in a state of chaos. , I dare not do any harm, unexpectedly the traitor is arrogant, lawless, omnipotent, unforgivable!"

Bi Ziyan's voice was sonorous and powerful, without any emotion.

Fang Kongxuan and the others listened with icy expressions on their faces.

Bi Ziyan took a look at them, and continued: "...the government and the people were shocked, filled with fear, the people were unbearable, and complained...the decision was made by the court, the third class of Jiangsu officials was downgraded, and they would not be moved for five years. Severe punishment without pardon, in order to serve as a warning to others, the Jiangsu imperial examinations were banned for five years, and all the bans are within the discipline, and will never be used..."

Fang Kongxuan and the others knelt deeply, their faces extremely uncomfortable.

They are all high-ranking officials in Jiangsu. Even though this decree has little influence on them, it is actually a blow to the entire Southern Zhili, which is nothing less than a catastrophe!

"Kin this!"

Fang Kongxuan and the others were in a trance, their minds were confused, and they didn't know what to think. It wasn't until Bi Ziyan read these two words that they suddenly woke up and said, "I will accept the order."

Bi Ziyan handed over the imperial decree, Fang Kongxuan took it, stood up, and others stood up behind him.

A group of people faced Bi Ziyan, and Bi Ziyan also looked at them.

The people in the lobby all looked at each other with complex expressions, speechless for a moment.

If things happened in the past, there would never be such a situation, the emperor would not be so strict, and the government and the public would not allow the emperor to do this. Worst of all, there is still the right to refute the six subjects. It is impossible to get to this point today!

But everything has changed, the Sixth Division has long since ceased to exist, and the ruling and opposition parties have no ability to stop Zhu Xu.

Fang Kongzhang hesitated to speak for a while, and finally said: "Ge Lao, is there really no other way? If this is announced, Nanzhili..."

Bi Ziyan frowned, his eyes were full of worry, but he said in a deep voice: "Nanzhili is over this time, even if the emperor doesn't deal with it, the cabinet will not forgive it at all! This decree will be announced today, you guys It is necessary to properly appease people's hearts, five years is not long, and there must be no more troubles, otherwise... this official will not guarantee that there will be no second Wei Zhongxian!"

The expressions of Fang Kongxuan and others changed suddenly. Although most of the people here were not in Nanjing at that time, they knew that too many people were killed that time. If it happened again, Nanzhili would be abolished as well.

The group of senior officials in Nanzhili looked at each other, full of worry and uneasiness.

Fang Kongzhang actually wanted to ask Bi Ziyan if he could treat this decree in a discounted manner. Seeing Bi Ziyan's attitude, he knew there was no room for change, so he said, "Yes, I understand."

Bi Ziyan came to Nanzhili this time, saying that he was delivering a decree and investigating, but in fact it was also to stabilize the hearts of the people in Nanzhili. He didn't want to put too much pressure on Fang Kongxuan and others, so he pondered for a while and said: "This official will Stay for half a month, try to help you calm down, so that there will be no more troubles. You should all know that in the eyes of the emperor, people are more important than officials."

Seeing what Bi Ziyan said, Fang Kongzheng sighed inwardly, and said, "Let the officials and others discuss carefully and find a safe way to ensure that the gentry in Nanzhili will not have a big reaction."

Bi Ziyan nodded slightly. This matter is a test for Fang Kong Xing and others, and even for the results of the "New Deal".

Fang Kongxuan and others went to the side hall, discussed the time for burning incense, and waited for another half an hour. All departments, especially the Governor's Mansion, were arranged before making this decree public.

"Foolish king! Faint official! Faint government! Great Ming Dynasty is dead!"

In a large courtyard, in a rather luxurious study room full of books, a middle-aged man heard the news, dropped the book in his hand, and roared to the sky.

"I knew it, I knew it, the court would not let it go so easily! But, why should I wait, why should I be forbidden to wait!"

In an exquisite, low-key academy on the mountainside, a man in his thirties first muttered to himself, then roared loudly, and then burst into tears.

A white-haired old man, from the back, looks at least 60 years old, but from his face, he is about [-] years old. In fact, he is only about [-] years old. Standing outside the wall of the Gongyuan, looking at the closed gate, his eyes streamed, Mutteringly said: "I have been enlightened since I was four years old. I took the provincial examination more than a dozen times and failed once. A few years ago, the imperial court imposed age restrictions. I thought there was no hope in this life... After entering the academy, I thought I still had a chance. Now, I have completely stopped thinking...whether it is good or bad..."
