Chapter 385: Half of the ministers are working towards the sky(1/2)
How much resistance is there to split Nanzhili?
Zhu Qiyu had considered it, and even before leaving Beijing, he prepared more gentle means.
There are more than 6 million households in Nanzhili, with a population of about 30 million men, women, young and old. The entire population of Nanzhili accounts for nearly 40% of the total population of the Ming Dynasty.
In the second year of Jingtai, Fujian, the capital of the capital, and the nine provinces outside the mountain were exempted from the second tax due to war, and the north and south summer and autumn grain were taxed. Shanxi was the first in the Northern Yamen and the south Zhili was the first in the Southern Yamen.
Nanzhili paid a total of 7.234820 stones, and the remaining amount was more than 700,000 taels of silver, which was 2.63 times that of Zhejiang. Zhejiang paid a total of only 2.76 million stones of regular tax, and more than 400,000 taels of silver.
The northern Yaya Shanxi paid only 2.8 million shi of regular tuition, while the capital of the capital was only 1.9 million shi. This is because the farm law was implemented in the Jingji area and the tax was increased.
The taxes in Nanzhili account for 40% of the taxes in the country.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were 940 scholars, and 350 were occupied by Nanzhili.
He passed the imperial examination in the Ming Dynasty, with 300 students in one subject, and 92 people in the Southern Zhili category.
How long did the Qing court split Yongle in Nanzhili?
A total of 115 years.
Since the second year of Shunzhi, Dorgon, who was regent, was stunned when he looked at the huge Nanzhili. The Ming Dynasty had been so confused that it had been so powerful that it had been like this for 274 years.
And when there was only one head left, the Qing court in the Battle of Songjin almost dragged to death during the rising period.
The blood trough of the Ming Dynasty was too thick.
When Dorgon set up Nanzhili as Jiangnan Province in the second year of Shunzhi, he began to split it, and established the Jiangzuo and Jiangyou Administration Commission. During the long years, it was finally completely demolished in the 25th year of Qianlong, that is, in August 1760, but it was only divided into Anhui and Jiangsu provinces.
Zhu Qiyu broke it into Fengyang Province, Suzhou Province, Yingtian Prefecture, Songjiang Prefecture, and directly wanted to break up Nanzhili. How much resistance should be?
But can it be possible not to dismantle?
Zhu Di wanted to demolish it. If it were to start from Zhu Di, it would take about three hundred years to split Nanzhili.
Otherwise, the capital would be demolished if it would be in Shuntian Prefecture.
Chen Yi took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I have a copy of the report."
Chen Yi took out a thick memorial and handed it to Xiaohuangmen. Xiaohuangmen handed it to Xing'an, and Xing'an passed it to His Majesty.
Zhu Qiyu took the memorial, which was very long. Nearly 200 local officials from the Hanlin Academy, and nearly 40% of Beijing officials were named on it.
Half of the ministers went to Tianque and asked the emperor to take back the decision to split Nanzhili.
The reasons are very sufficient, and a review is conducted in terms of humanities, geography, education, administration, financial affairs, historical evolution, etc.
Oppose the split of Nanzhili.
Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath and said, "I have issued an order to exempt you from the old debts mentioned in the memorial."
benefit.
Zhu Qiyu gave benefits.
Your Majesty, who only has a wick in the lamp in the Tai'an Palace, has benefited.
In fact, the Ming Dynasty had arrears of taxes and taxes. This kind of tax was arrears that would not be exempted from the world after the emperor ascended the throne.
Zhu Qiyu split Nanzhili, so he wrote off all the previous arrears in Nanzhili. This is the benefit Zhu Qiyu gave.
Chen Yi bowed three times and kowtowed five times, took off his official hat, waist seal, seal, fish talisman, and tablets one by one, and placed them on the ground, refusing to look up for a long time.
"I am quite pleased. At least your objection was not raised when I was in the South Yai, but when I returned to the capital, I was still obedient." Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath and spoke to comfort the officials first.
The joint opposition of these people waited until Zhu Qiyu returned to Beijing, and until Zhu Qiyu sat back on the throne.
Instead of making trouble, such as King Xiang who was in charge of the fire.
At least Chen Yi and the others' opposition is very clear about the rules and has not crossed the line.
Chen Yi, when Zhang Qiu was controlling the water, his legs were covered with lees, and he didn't know that killing a place and chasing a rented gentry was like killing a chicken, and his butt was sitting on the heads of the people;
In Hetao area, Chen Yi and Xu Youzhen built Jingtai'an Minsui, wore straw sandals, clenched their feet to treat water, and swept the floor with politeness.
But Zhu Qiyu didn't think that Chen Yi was an unreliable person.
Chen Yi and Xu Youzhen's gentle and gentle sweeping floor are a kind person, knowing what he really wants, and being a person who has settled himself down.
He knew very well how to deal with the emperor. He was the first person in Chen Yi to say this in Yanxinglou, praising God for such words, but Chen Yi had never submitted such memorials.
Chen Yi made a mistake and was punished. He received a reward card for merit and went to Hetao to deal with the flood. At that time, the Hetao army had just arrived in naturalization and had not yet arrived in Wuyuan Prefecture.
In short, Chen Yi was a pretty good minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Yi bowed his head and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Nanzhili is the place where the Ming Dynasty rose. At that time, even Zhang Shicheng was dominant in southern Jiangsu, and he did not know that the sky was high and the earth was rich. He fought against Emperor Gao of Emperor Wu for the King of Wu. Emperor Gao also set the capital Yingtian, which was the place where the heaven was destined."
"Dividing Nanzhili into four, wouldn't it be that the place where the Ming Dynasty dragon rose was divided into four, and the Jiunai into four, which may cause disaster for the destruction of the country."
"The north is poor and has very little taxes. It relies on the grain in the Grand Canal to travel north, and countless people are born."
"Most half of the scholars in the Nanya have been anxious and frightened when they heard the news. Your Majesty is not in the capital, and I am anxious and anxious, as if I have lost my family."
Zhu Qiyu glanced at Hu Yi and showed a helpless smile. Hu Yi wanted to separate and transform it. He had a good idea, was doing it, and it was effective.
But some things cannot be solved by dividing them.
Hu Yi had no choice but to bow his head, it was not his incompetence.
In fact, when discussing before, Zhu Qiyu had already expected this result.
Such a big thing cannot be resolved by other means, but he still has to end up in person.
"Zhengxian, this time the rebels were entrenched in Nanzhili." Zhu Qiyu threw out his own reasons.
This reason is very sufficient, they all rebelled. As the emperor, Zhu Qiyu wanted to have some tricks, shouldn't he?
Chen Yi knelt on the ground and continued to whisper: "Your Majesty."
"The country is in chaos and does not do anything, but you dare to offend the Lord's face and tell the king's faults that he will not refuse to punish him. If you die, you will not regret what you do. This is a straight minister."
"Wisdom is enough to embellish the wrong, argument is enough to speak, and whisper is easy to speak, and the article is formed by leaving the relatives of the flesh and blood inside and being jealous of the court outside. This is the slanderous minister."
"The treacherous and treacherous rebelliously, and the traitor has been killed. Even during the rebellion, I will see Duke Xu Chengzong of Wei and Ning Yuanbo as a ritual. He is loyal to Your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty. He has never had any false condemnation to the traitor."
"The Dingxi Hou Jiang Wan personally captured the northern gate of Xuzhou to welcome the royal army."
"Why does Your Majesty regard his ministers and workers as enemies? The people of Southern Zhili, the people, and the people are also the people of Your Majesty, the people, and the people."
Zhu Qiyu used the rebellion as a reason, and Chen Yi also proposed that the Ming Dynasty's loyal bones be reported during the rebellion, but did not make any mistakes.
The eloquent and eloquent sermon Feng Xian has achieved his strength. If Zhu Qiyu did not convince Chen Yi today, the issue of splitting Nanzhili would become a Nikkei issue.
And it is very likely to bring about a new conflict between the court and the local government.
At that point, it’s better not to tear it down.
Zhu Qiyu asked seriously: "Then Chen Zongxian, I'm here to ask you, have you seen the third question on the title of the memorial between me and Li Xian? Is it a dispute between private rights and public rights?"
Chen Yi replied loudly: "I have seen it."
Zhu Qiyu asked calmly: "Thirty percent of the population, 40% of the taxes, half of the court officials, 40% of the provincial examination juren, and nearly 90% of the maritime merchants. Such a huge area, they have been entangled, and their joint efforts have made the world look back. The rebellion has already arisen. I have not gone south for a long time and finally personally quelled the rebellion."
"Zhengxian, I'm here to ask you, what should I do if I rebel again in the future? Will I lead a million troops to kill Jiangnan completely?"
Chen Yi raised his head and asked loudly: "Your Majesty, how can you rebel against the Ming Dynasty in the place where the Ming Dynasty is rising?"
"It was originally a rebel minister who held an axe and had to surrender his tyranny. However, wherever his majesty's army went, they would eat pots of slurry to welcome the king's army. Isn't this just that, is it true that I, the people of the Ming Dynasty, are you looking forward to it?"
"The Ming Dynasty has no possibility of these men rebelling successfully, Your Majesty!"
Chen Yi's words are Yu Qian's original words. In addition to the people fighting for their lives and the princes fighting for the truth, the Ming Dynasty did not have the stage to rebel.
Facts have also proved that, except for the right time to choose the right time, even Sun Jizong's father, Sun Zhong, did not want to rebel.
When Zhu Qiyu heard Chen Yi's words, he finally smiled, and Chen Yi fell into his logic.
When the king and his ministers report the right, the king is an extremely powerful side, sitting on a three-foot platform, while the minister kneels on the ground.
If the emperor is not a fool, he will always take the initiative in his words.
It’s not that Zhu Qiyu is so eloquent, but that he is sitting there, the representative of imperial power. Chen Yi’s opposition to the emperor’s orders in the rules of his subjects will ultimately be difficult to ascend to heaven.
He continued to ask, "Then the dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the dynasty, the weight, the seal, the benevolence and righteousness of my Ming court cannot pass through the Nanya. What Chen Zongxian meant was that without a rebellion, wouldn't it be considered a rebellion?"
"I dare not. The intention of being a dissatisfied person is also a treason, a rebellion, and a great rebellion!" Chen Yi was frightened and said hurriedly.
"Can General Chen know what I have experienced in the South Yai?" Zhu Qiyu continued to ask.
Chen Yi thought about it seriously and said, "I know the part, but I don't know the details."
Yu Qian stood up and told all the things in the Nanya. In addition to Chen Wanniang's affairs, even Ran Siniang's affairs in sending letters to the Nanya were clearly explained.
"Before the first Meixianglou, His Majesty first advised Yanyunlou, and then Zhang Huangbang advised him. Then he went to Meixianglou to personally advise him, and he had to launch an army."
"For the second time, His Majesty repeatedly announced the edict, and even told those people how to deal with them, but he was unhappy until the Yellow River was not dead, and he would not cry until he saw the coffin."
"The benevolence and righteousness have been completed."
Yu Qian's words were very long, and it took nearly half an hour to explain the affairs of His Majesty in the Southern Yamen.
There was not much content about Zhu Qiyu sending him back to the North Yai, only Li Xianliu asked and splitting the South Yai, etc. In fact, the court officials only knew what happened and were not sure what happened.
For example, why Chen Yi said, why Your Majesty regards his ministers, workers, and the people as enemies, is based on this statement.
