Please, let me be a fool

In this way, the obstacles and troubles encountered are completely unmatched in Longyang Mansion.

If at this time, Wang Shouyuan is appointed as the patrol envoy of Liangjiang, it will definitely cause stumbling blocks, and the implementation of the reform will become more difficult.

Especially the Jiangnan gentry, with many factions, what they lack is a leader. If Wang Shouyuan takes this opportunity to gather all those people together, there will be big problems.

So at this time, Zhao Lingying clarified his opinions and said all the possible problems.

But when Wei Yunyi heard these words, his eyes suddenly brightened.

Yes, Wang Shouyuan is a firm gentry faction.

And decide for yourself.

In order to arouse the resistance of the gentry.

The stalls will be transferred to the mu and will continue to be handed over to the old man for implementation.

Although he felt in his heart that with the opponent's ability, he would definitely not be able to deal with all the gentry in the world.

Not afraid of ten thousand, just in case!

But what if the old father-in-law's deadly rival was pushed to the important position of Liangjiang patrol envoy, and the two continued to fight in the ring?

The more Wei Yunyi thought about it, the more excited he became.Because he also believed that the reason why Wang Shouyuan did not stop Song Gongwen was firstly because the Longyang gentry were not up to date and were frightened by the list given by Li Fang, and secondly because Wang Shouyuan's official position was too small.

Just imagine, how can a mere magistrate be the head of the court and a cabinet scholar?

The two are not at the same level at all!

As for the inspector of Liangjiang, it seemed that he was only one level higher.

But the power in his hands has been greatly improved, and he can also unite the entire gentry in the south of the Yangtze River.

Under such conditions, it will definitely be much easier to do things.

And Wei Yunyi has one more thing to be sure of.

That is, Wang Shouyuan must have resentment towards the old man.

How do you know?Can't you tell from the hundreds of memorials added up some time ago?

As for the Taifu, why at this time, he should persuade himself not to promote Wang Shouyuan.

This is easier to understand.

As Concubine Ying said.

The Jiangnan gentry seems to be powerful, but there are factions inside, such as Longyang Mansion, which is one faction.

It is precisely because of this that although the imperial court has a headache about this, it has not reached the time when it has to be dealt with.

But if, if someone takes the opportunity at this time, unite all the gentry.

That meaning is completely different.

Even if it does not threaten the foundation of the country, it will definitely influence the situation of the court.

And this is definitely not what Zhang Zhengming wants to see, but if Wang Shouyuan is just a magistrate, there is no need to worry at all.

Sure enough, for this country, the Tai Tuo really broke his heart!

But it is.

This is what Wei Yunyi wanted.

What he was afraid of was that the gentry were too weak, and when he was frightened by himself, he chose to compromise and let the reform be fully implemented.

In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, we must find a way to force the gentry to fight back.And Wang Shouyuan is a man who is so determined that even the first emperor dared to scold him directly. He is not afraid of heaven and earth.

With this person leading the gentry, aren't you afraid that he will do something great?

Correct!

That's it!

So whatever.

Wang Shouyuan must be promoted!

Immediately, Wei Yunyi stood up, looked at Concubine Ying, and said, "My concubine is right, okay, I've decided to promote Wang Shouyuan to serve as Liangjiang patrol!"

"Your Majesty Ying... huh?" Zhao Lingying was about to speak, but soon realized something was wrong.

Didn't Your Majesty say that I was right?

Logically, shouldn't the memorials of those officials in the south of the Yangtze River be refuted?

Why did you directly agree now and choose to promote Wang Shouyuan?

Zhao Lingying was confused, wondering if she had heard it wrong.

"My concubine, help me write an edict."

At this time, Wei Yunyi spoke again and said: "Well, the sooner the better, hand it over to the cabinet, let them send it down later, and promote Wang Shouyuan!"

it is true...

Hearing this sentence, Zhao Lingying wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say.

In the end, he just nodded, bowed and said: "The concubine understands."

Although she couldn't understand why His Majesty was like this.

But I feel in my heart.

Your Majesty must have a reason for doing so.

For example, deliberately promoting Wang Shouyuan to paralyze the gentry at once?

After all, it is a national policy to promote the allocation of land to the mother, and there are too many things and people involved.

If it is just the same as before, simply suppressing the gentry, the effect may be counterproductive.

But if Wang Shouyuan is promoted at this time, it can be regarded as a comfort to the gentry faction.

Still the same sentence, this is the emperor's mind, this is checks and balances!

And Wei Yunyi who finished all this.

Very pleased.

Wang Shouyuan, Wang Shouyuan, I have great expectations for you, don't let me down.

Immediately afterwards, he asked Concubine Ying to draw up the decree, and after Wang Jin sent it to the cabinet, he chose to leave.

After all, there are still a bunch of memorials to deal with, so I can't stay here all the time and let the other party be distracted, right?

So Wei Yunyi went directly to the alchemy room.

And just as he was preparing for the second batch of Great Return Pill to be refined.

That afternoon.

The gate of the east city of the capital.

Song Gongwen's carriage also slowly drove into the city.

He raised his hand and opened the curtain, looking at the tall city wall of the capital, a smile appeared on his face.

It's been a while since I left, but I miss my wife a little bit.

"Master, are you going back to the house directly?"

Next to it, the butler rode forward and said.

"No, go to that place, the teacher should be waiting for me." Song Gongwen thought for a while and said immediately.

Before coming again, he had already written to the teacher, explaining the specific time of his return to Beijing.

Just to talk about the progress of the reform in Longyang Mansion recently.

And Wang Shouyuan's current situation.

As for His Majesty, Song Gongwen is not in a hurry, because the imperial meeting will be held in two days.

As a confidant, the butler naturally knew where it was.Immediately let the guard next to him go back to the mansion first, and he and the groom head to the destination together!

Soon after.

The carriage arrived in the west of the capital city.

It's still that secret street, it's still that remote courtyard.

Song Gongwen asked the housekeeper to guard outside, and report back in time if there is any movement.

He stepped into the yard himself.

"Official document."

As soon as he entered the inner hall, Zhang Zhengming greeted him, with a smile on his face, he said: "This time, the trial of Longyang mansion stalls entering the mu is successful, and you have contributed a lot!"

"The teacher beat the student!" Song Gongwen said immediately, "Brother Shouyuan is helping with all his strength, and the teacher is secretly assisting. The most important thing is His Majesty's unconditional trust and support."

Although it is not yet a complete success to spread the land into the mu, it is actually almost there.

Otherwise, he would not choose to return to the capital at this time.

Of course Song Gongwen didn't think so.

The success of this reform is entirely because of myself.

As said, all conditions need to be mature.

Otherwise, relying solely on one person's strength, even if he is a cabinet scholar, it is difficult to succeed.

"Don't be modest, you are the one who proposed the reform." Zhang Zhengming smiled and continued: "There is also the Longyang New Law of Shouyuan. Although it has some loopholes and is not perfect, it can be implemented together with Tan Ding Rumu. It will definitely improve the lives of the people in Longyang Prefecture."

If the poll tax is abolished, the burden on the people will be reduced, but the gentry will have to pay more taxes, and the new law in Longyang is the government's backstop.

Both of them could almost predict that Wei's tax revenue would inevitably increase next year.

Of course, it was also because it was only carried out on a pilot project in Longyang Mansion.

The effect shown is not obvious.

So next most important.

It is implemented nationwide.

Once successful, then this kind of change will be quite big!

Song Gongwen understood this, and immediately continued: "So after two days of the imperial meeting, the students will propose to His Majesty to implement reforms throughout the country, and His Majesty will definitely agree."

"It seems that I also need to object at the right time!" Zhang Zhengming continued with a smile.

Once the reforms are all completed, His Majesty's prestige both in the court and among the people.

It will inevitably climb steadily, not to mention reaching the level of the previous emperors.

But a decision will be made later.

If the ministers want to object, they have to think carefully.

Moreover, there are still many opportunities to build prestige in the future, not in just one or two days.

"Teacher, are you going to oppose His Majesty again?" At this time, Song Gongwen pondered for a while, and continued: "Students have heard that because of my success in this experiment, some ministers and common people have begun to secretly talk about you, Teacher."

"Teacher, you are old, you no longer have the courage of the first emperor's time, you will only keep old."

He has indeed been away.

But this kind of news can still be received.

It should be noted that before this, the teacher's prestige in the court was almost unparalleled.

According to this situation, no matter whether the Great Wei is strong or not, in Qing History, the teacher will definitely be given a very high evaluation.

But once the matter of spreading the income into the mu is over, it will be difficult to say.

"Haha."

At this moment, Zhang Zhengming suddenly laughed, and continued: "Do you really think that this kind of discussion appeared out of thin air?"

As soon as these words came out, Song Gongwen couldn't help but widen his eyes, a little unbelievable.

How smart he is, he naturally understands the meaning of this sentence.

In other words.
