The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and others were stunned and looked at the pile of bullets on the imperial case.

Isn’t this too productive?

The Metropolitan Procuratorate may not receive a single bullet in one day.

But now ten letters have been submitted, and all of them were written by Yan Chengjin.

Wu Kuan carefully noticed that except for the cabinet, all the yamen under the jurisdiction of Jiuqing were impeached by this guy.

The performance of the Metropolitan Procuratorate this month is enough.

Before Emperor Hongzhi could react from the shock, he was stunned.

Every time I open a magazine, I see the first article without exception, hiding the fields and avoiding paying taxes.

Anger couldn't help but rise from his chest and spread throughout his body.

He tightened his fists and said: "As an official in Beijing, you should set an example for the world's parents and officials. Under the Emperor's control, there are so many officials who harbor evil and evil practices."

Yan Chengjin did not want to impeach too many officials.

But His Majesty's inspection of the land is a great opportunity to eliminate Prince Ning's connections in the capital.

Prince Ning would be very angry if he knew about it, right?

In addition to the ten people on the bullet, there was also a group of officials hiding in the fields to avoid too much shock. He did not write it on the bullet.

The principle of grasping the big and letting go of the small will also have the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger.

Xiong Gan questioned the authenticity of the bullets: "Your Majesty, after injuring so many officials, we still need to verify them first and then deal with them."

"What Master Xiong said makes sense." Liu Jian said worriedly.

Hiding the land to avoid taxes, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, with a fifty stick, he was exiled thousands of miles.

Exiling so many officials in one go had to be a prudent decision.

Emperor Hongzhi did not find it difficult at all. It was these dog officials who were partial to the law and delayed the arrival of the prosperous times.

"Put him in jail first, and then conduct a thorough investigation. Is there any evidence of guilt in the Yan Qing family's hands?"

Yan Chengjin said: "If the Ministry of Punishment wants to investigate, I can send the evidence to the Yamen."

Punishing officials in the court is simple;

But it is difficult to punish the gentry in the world.

There are gentry in every prefecture and county. If they instigate servants to resist, they will form a tightrope and refuse to hand over the hidden paddy fields.

There will be chaos in the two capitals and thirteen roads.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed several times when he thought of this, and Liu Jian didn't know what to say.

"I will never forgive officials who hide their fields. As for the gentry in the community, the Metropolitan Procuratorate first orders the censor to conduct a thorough investigation and submit the list to the court."

The gentry were the foundation of the Ming Dynasty's business tax. If they didn't pay taxes, they would not be able to pay taxes anymore.

I'm afraid, we have to go back to reforming business and taxation.

"I obey the order." Wu Kuan bowed slightly.

He let out a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, the officer's name was not on the bullet.

Anyone who was an official in the Chenghua Dynasty had not yet hid a third of an acre of land.

The custom of the Chenghua Dynasty was to hide dirt and accept bribes. The palace sent eunuchs to buy it everywhere, which made the merchants and gentry miserable.

In order to find shelter, the gentry donated money to their officials one after another, causing many officials to have hidden silver.

Emperor Hongzhi issued the decree, but Liu Jian and Li Dongyang did not stop him.

Although this knife is a bit harsh, it can cut away the carrion and bring peace to the world.

Chen Qing stood with a ashamed look on his face. The Ministry of Household Supervision was ineffective and one person needed to take responsibility.

But His Majesty was so talented that he never responded to his request.

"Your Majesty, I am not strong enough, so I beg you to serve!"

"Accurate."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed, although the Ministry of Revenue has the responsibility, the greater responsibility should be mine.

However, the Ministry of Revenue also needs to give an explanation to the people all over the world.

Seeing him sighing, Yan Chengjin felt that he was too concerned.

Although there are some changes in the capital and Liangxiang,

But the rest of the Ming Dynasty has not changed much from before he traveled through time.

Even in the previous life, if good governance continued, there were still many backward corners that remained unchanged.

To be a good emperor is like a cow in the field. You must cultivate the land of Ming Dynasty and work hard without stopping.

"Your Majesty? I think it is better to return the land to the southwestern part of the country and take advantage of the land camp to go south to Guangxi and take all the chieftain's land back to the imperial court.

In this way, the chieftains can be controlled not to rebel, and the number of acres in the yellow book can also be expanded. "

Yan Chengjin admonished that although the Ming Dynasty promoted the reform of the land and returned to the current situation.

But the real reform of the country was implemented on a large scale during the Qing Dynasty.

The results prove that good governance can be promoted throughout the world.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "If the chieftain system is abolished, will the chieftains not resist?"

"There is a guard station in the southwest to prevent the chieftains from resisting the imperial decree, and Xu Jinzhong has 100,000 people in Tunli, Hainan, so he can provide additional support at any time."

Liu Jian hesitated and did not assert immediately.

Emperor Hongzhi decided to discuss it later at court. At this time, he issued an imperial edict arbitrarily. If it was a bad government, it would be difficult to reverse it.

"We'll discuss it in the morning!"

Yan Chengjin was still standing beside the imperial case.

He advised Xie Yu to check the yellow records, which was a great achievement.

Nowadays, officials who evade taxes are being investigated, and King Ning's minions have been pulled out. They should be rewarded.

His Majesty is always unconscious.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. There is a long way to go. Xie Yu has been on duty in the palace for more than three months to clean up the yellow list. I would like to ask for merit for him."

Your Majesty will undoubtedly reward you with silver coins again.

It doesn't matter whether he is rewarded or not. What is important is that with his meritorious service, he successively inspected ten officials in the government and the public.

Your Majesty should give you a promotion!

"What Yan Qing's family said is absolutely true. I will reward you with five hundred taels of jade and silver, as well as a rhinoceros belt." Emperor Hongzhi said.

Xiao Jing urgently reminded: "Your Majesty, Xie Yu has no title, how can he be given a rhinoceros belt?"

Zhang Sheng, the Minister of Rites, nodded slightly.

"As long as I say yes! Retreat, I will write an edict to punish myself."

Your Majesty, don’t you think there is something missing?

Yan Chengjin couldn't help but complain.

Fortunately, he was still prepared.

Whether he can be promoted to the imperial censor depends on the bullet in his arms.

Although the imperial censor's official position is not small, he belongs to the lower third rank among the nine ministers, not as good as the six ministries, let alone the cabinet.

Your Majesty should be able to seal such a small official, right?

"Your Majesty, I still have a bullet."

Li Dongyang and others felt a chill in vain, there was actually a bullet!

Wu Kuan was nervous and felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

This kid doesn't want to deceive his master and destroy his ancestors, right?

I am your subordinate!

"I want to impeach you, the imperial censor of the Imperial Procuratorate, Wu Kuan!"

hiss!

Sure enough he impeached! Really impeached!

Wu Kuan was stunned in place, his head buzzing, as if he had a brain disease, he wanted to speak, but couldn't pronounce the words clearly.

He guessed it right!

Yan Chengjin handed over the bullets. Wu Kuan thought about retirement all day long and did nothing in the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

The bullets were not well written, but they did not picket the officials.

When will such a prosperous age come?

If he does not pursue his own affairs in his position, it is better to change him to the censor of the capital.

Li Dongyang and others were very surprised. Wu Kuan was kind to people in the court and his official reputation was as clear as water.

Where does the guilt come from that can lead to impeachment?

Emperor Hongzhi looked serious and said sternly: "Put your hands up!"

Yan Chengjin was shocked: "What is your Majesty going to do?"

Emperor Hongzhi reached out and grabbed his sleeve. He looked carefully and found that the sleeve was empty.

"Is there really not a single bullet left?"

Yan Chengjin said truthfully: "No more."

Emperor Hongzhi then opened the memorial. He wanted to see what he wanted to impeach Wu Kuan.

Yan Chengjin was even more nervous than Wu Kuan. Whether he could be promoted to the imperial censor depended on this letter.

If you can't, you can only give your last hand.

I hope your Majesty will not force me!
