"My memory of Wen Tiren, please see Your Majesty." Wen Tiren took a small benefit this time. When he heard that he was going to come to the Emperor's Palace to face the saint, he was so scared that he was so shocked.

Then, relax like empty-handedness.

How many years have passed? How many years have the civil servants been summoned on the platform? Unexpectedly, Wen Tiren, who has only been in the cabinet for less than a year to assist in the government, won this honor!

In this regard, Zhu Youxiao just wanted to say, save money, I am just too lazy to change the place.

In fact, it is not the case. This time, there is the idea of ​​allowing Wen Tiren to gain prestige and thus elevating the Zhejiang Party's position in the court, which is of great help.

The current cabinet assistant Wei Guangwei was unable to figure it out even though he thought about it. He thought that he was the longest-lived cabinet chief since the establishment of the Tianqi Dynasty. He did not even receive such an honor. Why can he have Wen Tiren?

What's wrong with me?

But no matter what, Wen Tiren came excitedly and came to Zhu Youxiao with the envious and jealous eyes of civil servants in the court.

"I believe my dear already knows what happened to the King of Tang."

When Wen Tiren heard this, his mind immediately became active and then said, "Your Majesty, I have been sleeping at home, I don't know much about it."

"You are smart." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile, and then straightforward:

"I have summoned you to ask you about your opinion on the implementation of the throne limiting method of the clan in the second year of the Tianqi period. Let me be honest, I forgive you for not guilty."

Wen Tiren thought to himself that the emperor asked this, it was obvious that he wanted to think about the limit on the royal family's wealth, so there were only two possibilities.

First, I want to cancel the method of limiting the wealth of the royal family.

Second, I wanted to take advantage of this scandal caused by the Tang King to follow the trend and implement the law of limiting the family’s wealth that has been implemented for nearly five years on Tianqi, and further revise it.

Judging from the current situation, it is only possible to be the second type.

Wen Tiren thought of this and said, "I think that the law of limiting wealth in the royal family has been implemented for nearly five years, and the pros and cons of the political solution has been revealed."

Zhu Youxiao became interested, leaned on the dragon chaise and changed his position, crossed his legs, and smiled and said, "Oh? Then tell me."

Wen Tiren was not as relaxed as the emperor. He was just glad that he guessed it right.

He then said: "The royal family limits the salary, and the vassal silver for each prefecture in the first year of Tianqi as a fixed quota. Each prince's mansion will be stipulated, and there will never be additional sects, but there will be no restrictions on the branches of each prefecture."

"In the first year of Tianqi, Shanxi's vassals' vassals' 470,000 taels of silver, and in the second year of Tianqi, the law of limiting the family's vassals was implemented. However, in April of the sixth year of Tianqi, Jiangxi inspector Wang Hailun reported that the silver in Shanxi had increased to 520,000 taels."

"Similar situations occurred in the royal palaces in various places. Although the imperial court clearly stipulated that the salary of each vassal was silver, the consumption did not decrease but increased over the years, which was related to the branches of each prince's palace."

"There are many clans in the country, and the court only stipulates the Luyin of the Prince's Mansion. The local government has no right to govern the residences of the Prince's Mansion, the General's Mansion and other clans."

"thus……"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and sneered: "It seems that my relatives are missing out on national laws and are doing their own things. They are really not correcting them after repeated instruction!"

Wen Tiren found out that the emperor had misunderstood and hurriedly said:

"It's not entirely true. Your Majesty, the court has strict management of the royal family. The children of the royal family are not allowed to go to business and serve as officials, nor can they join the army to lead troops. Therefore, the royal family in various places has no source of income except for the extra money and silver."

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao suddenly realized that he had never thought about this level. At this time of the Ming Dynasty, the princes and princes above were the ones who were rich.

The lieutenants and commanders at the bottom could not go to business and politics, nor could they serve in the army and eat official food, so they could only live a life of eating Luyin.

It now seems that the reform in the second year of the Tianqi revelation did not and could not solve the problem. To this day, the Ming Dynasty still has to face huge financial consumption from clan children.

And because the number of vassal kings is still growing, this consumption will continue to increase year by year, and in later generations, it will still be a difficult problem.

It is best to completely solve this problem at this time.

It is not possible to limit the wealth of the royal family. It seems that the sect ban is the best way to allow children of the lower class to survive. If they have the means of survival, they will naturally not rely on the Luyin.

If the clan children are self-reliant and no longer rely on the Luyin, the Luyin given by the court will decrease year by year. In the end, the Luyin for the royal family will be really successful.

This item alone can save at least tens of millions of taels of expenses per year for the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youxiao thought about it, then stood up and said:

"Set up the West Warehouse Pavilion and summoned the British Duke Zhang Weixian, the cabinet chief Wei Guangwei, the Dong Pavilion Grand Secretary Hu Shiguang, the Wenhua Palace Grand Secretary Xu Weijing, and the Minister of War Wang Qia immediately saw me."

The five key officials in the court represented the interests of all parties behind them. They were summoned to the Western Warm Pavilion, and together with the emerging Zhejiang Party leader Wen Tiren, a small-scale meeting began.

The theme of this meeting was very clear, which was to further revise the law of limiting the family members implemented in the second year of Tianqi.

Zhu Youxiao’s meaning is very clear. After five years of experimentation, the difficulties and disadvantages of the royal family’s limit of their wealth have been clear. This time, we must be in place in one step to solve this hidden danger.

It was about two hours later, when the sun set, and he looked tired, but the six important officials in the court, who had been excited, left the West Warehouse.

When they left, they were still discussing happily, as if they were very accomplished.

Xu Weijing, a Grand Secretary of the Dongge, said: "There is a strange idea of ​​this royal family reform, and I think it is feasible."

Hu Shiguang, the Grand Secretary of Wenhua Palace, also smiled and said, "Yes, if it works, the royal family's fortune will no longer be a financial burden in the future!"

British Duke Zhang Weixian thought carefully while walking, without saying a word.

Wang Qia, the Minister of War, walked with Wen Tiren, the Grand Secretary of Wuying Palace. The two talked and laughed, but there was no party dispute between them.

In this general clan reform, they were all the leaders who followed the Apocalypse Emperor, and the interests of the clan had nothing to do with them.

As long as the emperor is strong, the clan relatives can't make any waves.

......

The next day, on the ninth day of the seventh month of the sixth year of the Tianqi period, the royal family's limit on the wealth limit method was heated by the court officials, and based on the situation of the vassals and silver in the royal palaces from the second year of the Tianqi period to the sixth year of the Tianqi period, a new standard of the wealth silver quota was stipulated.

In addition, the law on limiting wealth in the royal family was further revised, and it was decided to continue the ban on the clan, allowing the children of the royal family below the state to go to business, politics, military affairs, and farm.

However, once the children of the clan choose other paths, they are regarded as automatically giving up the right to inherit the title and salary, and have no advantage except the identity of the clan's children.

In addition, a new law has been added - "Tao Chengyuan Law".

The difference between the test of inheritance in the sixth year of Tianqi and the test of Zhang Juzheng in the Wanli period is completely different.

In this decree, the first time since the Ming Dynasty, the Tianqi Dynasty stipulated that all the titles of clans and children under the county and princes will be reassessed in the next month, early August.

The assessment is divided into three subjects: firearms, riding skills, and infantry battles. The results are determined based on the results to determine whether the children of the clan maintain the original title, give the title to the title, or deprive the title to the title.
