Chapter four hundred and ninety-two refers to things
"I have a descendant."
Xu Zixian's heart is complicated, and he is really above ordinary people.
He is considered a person of three lives and later generations, Xu Zixian from the past and two lives, and finally Xu Zixian from this life was formed.
But after working hard for several years, the current situation is now worth the entanglements of past and present life.
When his wives and concubines are pregnant at the same time, Xu Zixian certainly doesn't care about legitimate and illegitimate. His children generally love him. As for the throne, he will become a legitimate, and if he does not have a legitimate, he will become a eldest son. In the future, Xu Zixian's plan is to use the law in everything, including the throne. As for whether the throne is virtuous, it doesn't matter much. Now Xu Zixian is over 20 years old. If God gives him a chance, ten years will be the time to win, and then at least thirty years of Taiping Emperor.
At that time, the National Parliament and Parliament will be established, and the power will be decentralized from the road, prefecture, military prefecture, county, and local governments will be strict, and the royal family will still join the army, and newspaper supervision will be opened. Then, as long as the military power does not move down, the weight will be fine. Anyway, there will be an army, and the parliament will check and balance the government, and establish a new term for four or five years, and two terms will be sure to retire.
These things flashed through Xu Zixian's mind, and now he is only full of joy.
After repeated congratulations, everyone finally settled down to talk about the main business.
"There is no need to be too many troops stationed in Qizhou." Xu Zixian said to everyone: "I have ordered the First Army to be moved back to Fuzhou to assist in the defense of Qizhou. At the same time, the newly formed Fourth Army was transferred, and the Fifth Army was moved to the Yongxing Army and Shaowu Army. The original Xiang Army entered the camp on the spot, waiting for the training of the organization."
"As for the navy, of course, the entire army was moved to Penghu, and a small number of soldiers could take leave, and the rest of the soldiers could also be ordered to take off." Xu Zixian continued: "The war was seriously injured, and all the injured soldiers would go to Fuzhou to recuperate. The shogunate recruited a large mansion in the city and changed it to a hospital to recuperate and regulate our injured soldiers. Brother Zhang must do this."
These things are all in charge of the Military and Political Department. Of course, Xu Xingwei had nothing to say, and he immediately agreed with his promise.
"I have ordered Jin Jian to send more people to Jiangxi and Zhejiang to detect the trail of Li Kaiming." Xu Zi first turned to Chen Zuocai and said, "Continue to submit a report to the court, saying that Li thieves have not yet been cleared out. Next, my shogunate will continue to track and kill, and will never raise tigers and leave them behind."
Fang Shaoqun smiled slightly and said, "My subordinates know, and when they go back, they will draft the title book."
What are you chasing and what are you chasing? This is an obvious thing. As long as the two palaces and the emperor are not stupid enough, or wishful thinking, they will understand that before Xu Zixian's reputation and real power reach a certain level, Li Kaiming will definitely be suppressed and will never be destroyed.
"After returning to Penghu, Yanke can consider handing over the magistrate, stay in Qizhou as the defense envoy, and then I will protect you as the magistrate... The port of Qizhou is very important here." Xu Zixian said to Wei Yi: "Li Anyuan is in charge of Qizhou, and he has made great contributions in the fight to suppress the thieves. I plan to protect him as the Zhixinghua Army."
This is Xu Zi first talked about the arrangements in Fujian officialdom after the war, and everyone listened carefully.
"Lu Wenxian was the magistrate of Jianzhou and once impeached Wang Yue to the court for his misfortune. At the beginning of the uprising, Li Kaiming recruited local soldiers to help defend the counties. Although each county was in trouble, two counties remained. This is Lu Wenxian's merit." Xu Zixian said slowly: "Lin Yue, the governor of Zhangzhou, was panicked when Yan Qi and other thieves came in. He abandoned the city and left. I want to impeach him to the court and recommend Lu Wenxian as the magistrate of Zhangzhou."
Zhixinghua military horse industry is already old and has long resigned like Wang Yue. Previously, the first road to Fujian Road
The regiment was in chaos, and the two prefectures could not arrange personnel for the Xinghua Army. The Xinghua Army had only three counties, Futian, Xianyou and Xinghua, located in the lower reaches of the Minjiang River, and also belonged to the outer periphery of the Fuzhou plain. It had many mountains and few fields. The place was not rich compared to the other states on Fujian Road. It was just that it guarded Fuzhou and was sandwiched between Quanzhou and Fuzhou, so the army was established here at that time.
The Shaowu Army was between Tingzhou and Jianzhou. There were many mountains in the territory, which controlled the high terrain between Jiangxi and Fujian. It was not important to discuss people's livelihood, economy and local wealth, but its strategic position was relatively high and it was also one of the two armies of Fujian Road.
Xu Zixian did not intend to recommend Lu Wenxian as an magistrate of Jianzhou, but instead placed Lu Wenxian in Zhangzhou and Li Anyuan in Xinghua Army. These two officials were the first officials who participated in Xu Zixian on Fujian Road. As the King of Qin had just opened his prestige and urgently needed to establish prestige, the court would not refuse his request. In this way, if two military states with no deep relationship were inserted into their own government officials, and then they would then arrange officials and guard the army. Everything would be natural.
As for the failure of Jianzhou, no matter what official the imperial court sends, it will make people afraid of difficulties. It is easier to arrange one's own people to take charge of Jianzhou in this way.
Wei Yi asked: "I don't know who will go to Jianzhou to be the governor?"
Xu Zixian smiled and said, "How about Li Jingqing?"
Li Jingqing was Li Mingyu and an outstanding figure among the juniors of Changwen Hou Mansion. He is quite famous for his literary talent and is a skilled official. He was originally a commander of the Fengshang and the magistrate of Minqing. Last year, he was recommended as the magistrate of Zhangzhou. When he was in the capital, he was famous for his integrity and courage.
Xu Zixian certainly had selfish intentions for such a candidate, but he used it to provide relief to Jianzhou, which was displaced after the war, was a candidate that the court would agree with.
In this continuous layout, Fuzhou, which has eleven counties, is certainly unavailable. Yang Shiwei's qualifications are there, and he has always been close to the King of Qin. In addition, the official reputation is very good, and the people love the gentry and believe it. With a little infiltration and help, it is not difficult to control the Fuzhou Prefecture City. What is difficult is that more than ten counties will gradually change into the Qin King's robes, and the people-friendly officials who are willing to be controlled by the shogunate will gradually control the place... This requires the cooperation of the Changwen Hou Mansion.
Therefore, Li Mingyu and Xu Zixian have no bad relationship, and Xu Zixian also wants to show goodwill to Changwen Hou Mansion. Li Mingyu is in charge of Jianzhou, which is quite appropriate and suitable.
"Excellent." Wei Yi smiled and said, "In this way, Quanzhou is also a matter of Gujian."
Once Fuzhou, Zhangzhou, Xinghua Army, and Jianzhou are all under control, we will find a reason to impeach the Shaowu Army, Tingzhou and Quanzhou prefectures, and then we will assign officials to enrich the military and states. If the entire Fujian Road is obtained, we will be able to obtain it.
"It is natural for the king to take charge of Fujian Road, and the court will not deliberately overestimate the bull." Fang Shaoqun smiled and said, "Whether the tax can be kept in Fujian Road, this is the key point. Otherwise, the officials will be cleaned up, the government will be cleaned, and the taxes collected will still be paid to the center for more than 90%. We have worked hard, so why did we come?"
"The court will definitely cancel the levy." Wei Yi frowned and said, "But it's difficult for the king to reduce the tax."
"I have my own plans for this matter." Xu Zixian said: "It is imperative to reduce the tax, at least 30% to 40%.
Fang Shaoqun smiled coldly. Xu Zi said before that he wanted to reduce 30%, but now it's better, 30 to 40%.
As long as the center of the court is still there, the emperor is still there, and the two prefectures are still there, even if there is a prince on Fujian Road, the court would rather set up the first and then abolish it, or even destroy the Fujian Road, and the tax reduction will never be allowed.
Since the reign of Emperor Wenzong, in order to maintain a 100 million state tax, local officials have been lying to embezzle and cheat, as long as they can pay taxes in real amounts, they can
As officials and officials, many honest officials are not allowed to be promoted for the rest of their lives, or are unable to serve as civil servants or practical officials, they can only serve as Ci Lin officials and censors, which means that the court has this default mentality.
Now the Wei Dynasty is still a unified country on the surface, and its tax amount is still 100 million yuan. However, in the eyes of those who are interested in Fang Shaoqun, the Wei Dynasty's national strength has long been overdrawn and the local area has been ruined. Now it is overdrawn and barely maintained. Of course, such overdrawn cannot last for too long. Why is it eager to fight the Northern Expedition and want to achieve its contribution to the first battle? Isn't the national strength unable to stand it?
The emperor, the two prefectures, court officials, and the local knowledgeable people all knew very well, and if this continued, it would never be able to hold on... Why did Liu Zhiyuan cater to the emperor? This former Dagan was also a smart person. Liu Zhiyuan was also quite clear about the position of the most important transferee among local officials and Beijing officials. The Great Wei Dynasty was also very clear that the inner pockets of the Great Wei Dynasty were coming up, and it was really impossible to bear it.
There are many thieves in the south and many Hu cavalry in the north. Under the heavy tuition, people's hearts are all about to rebel.
If you hold on, you can't say for ten or twenty years. The Northern Expedition was to take all the elite imperial guards as bets. If you win or lose with one bet, there will always be a bright future.
Of course, Liu Zhiyuan, Han Zhong, and the emperor had never thought that the Hu people would rise quickly and decline quickly. In fact, Donghu did not have the aura and urgency of the time at this time. If he persisted for more than ten or twenty years, it would be very likely that Donghu would suddenly disappear quietly in the long river of history, just like their predecessors.
But Donghu is sitting on the Liaodong Plain, from the Little and Big Linghe to the Hunhe Liaohe, a large area of ointment and moist land and a million people are indeed not an ordinary barbarian country. It is because Xu Zi first felt from the outsider's perspective and then he might be on the verge of defeat. But how could the Emperor of the Wei Dynasty and the officials who were in the game dare to continue to bet?
Therefore, taxation matters are the foundation of the Great Wei Dynasty. As long as the reduction and exemption are allowed, all the roads in the world are not like boiling in boiling soup. As long as the reduction and exemption are allowed on Fujian, the world will be immediately scattered.
Xu Zi was unwilling to say more about this topic. This is the advantage of time travelers. After the defeat of the Northern Expedition, Jiangnan East Road, the richest place, asked for tax reduction and exemption, and the taxes received from Jiangnan East Road that year were less than 70%.
After that, all walks of life followed suit, but later, even 50% of the tax was not fully released in many places.
On Fujian Road, it lasted until Li Kaiming entered the capital. The Zhao and his son hurriedly intercepted taxes, money and grain, and hurriedly recruited troops, but the result was a mob that was vulnerable.
As long as the Northern Expedition is settled, Xu Zi first planned to intercept about 40%, which is 4 million yuan. Some of them are divided into grain for the government army to use for their own use, and some are truly exempted from the people, giving the people on Fujian Road a breath.
As for the imperial court, he was half dead after the defeat in the Northern Expedition, so there was no need to think too much about it.
There is no need to say this at this time, Xu Zixian said: "It's time for me to go back to Fuzhou."
The previous return to Qizhou Port was to give Fuzhou a buffer period, and it was also to see how many officials would earnestly. In addition, we would like to welcome Chen Wenjun and Xiuniang in Qizhou... In recent times, Xu Zixian will not return to Dongfan Island, and the island affairs were handed over to Fu Qian and others to preside over the presidency. Even Li Yi wanted to come to Fuzhou to assist Xu Zixian in preside over the overall situation.
