Chapter 214

Zhang Juzheng said yes, and left Qianqing Palace.

What Zhu Yijun meant was to unify the thinking of the ruling class of the Ming Empire. To be precise, it was to unify into a new thinking, so that Zhang Juzheng could do something about theoretical construction after ten years in power.

Because reform is not just about politics and the military, but also in the ideological and cultural fields, and must also keep pace with the times.

After all, Zhu Yijun can't rely on Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui to maintain his rule in the future.

People like Zhang Juzheng and Hai Rui will grow old sooner or later, but their spirit can continue. It is necessary to use their spirit to combine with reality to form a new idea of ​​​​governing the country, and then educate the people behind, so that the people behind Continuing this spirit, and even making progress, will continue to drive innovation and eliminate malpractice.

Although Zhang Juzheng was born in Hanlin, in history, Zhang Juzheng never thought about making any achievements in ideological reform.

His suppression of different voices was simply to ban lectures, close academies, and stop scholar-bureaucrats from speaking, and then use power to enforce reforms.

But now, Zhu Yijun asked him to unify his reform ideas with the emperor's own ideas, which was a very fresh task for him.

Li Yan, meritorious deeds, and morality are the lifelong pursuits of scholar-bureaucrats in this era.

Zhang Juzheng originally only wanted to make meritorious service, but the emperor needed him to make a statement, but he did not dare to neglect, so after returning to the mansion, Mochizuki began to meditate on how to sum up his way of governing the country, and even agree with His Majesty's proposal. To be unified, as a program for future generations to govern the country.

"Influenced by He Xinyin, His Majesty added the principle of benefiting the people on the basis of enriching the country and strengthening the army;"

"He also consciously emphasized the differences between Hua and Yi, and in order to emphasize that his people are not the only ones who respect scholar-bureaucrats, they do not hesitate to beat the crown to force them;"

"What is your majesty doing this for? Is it just to rejuvenate Daming, or is he really being the king of Yao and Shun in his mind?"

Zhang Juzheng muttered to himself, and soon went back to the house, and began to write quickly, as if he had returned to the days when he was a Hanlin bachelor, only studying Confucian classics and writing argumentative articles.

When Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng were planning theoretical construction, the struggle between one class and another was still taking place in Nanzhili.

For Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng, the struggle in Nanzhili is no longer a big deal, and they need to focus on a longer-term layout.

As for the struggle in southern Zhili, to be honest, Zhu Yijun had already foreseen it, and Zhang Juzheng had also foreseen it when he decided to implement the new policy of government and gentry paying food and errands together before Hai Rui was rehabilitated.

Although Zhang Juzheng did not expect that Zhu Yijun would instruct Hai Rui to take the matter to this point, but he had mentioned to Zhu Yijun at that time that as long as the local Haoyou couldn't bear to make a move first, everything would be easy to handle.

What the imperial court is most worried about is not that the local tyrants will take action, but what is most worried about is that the tyrants obey the rules, so that the court can find no reason to deal with them.

Because after all, the imperial court did not plunder the most primitive bandits, he still had to be famous after all, otherwise he would trample on the rules he set, and trampling on his own rules was undoubtedly equivalent to Zhu Yijun chopping off the legs of his dragon chair.

However, the Haoyou people in Nanzhili are really uncomfortable now. They really did not expect that things will come to this point. One day, they will be blocked by tenant farmers and hired workers to demonstrate and ask themselves to give in to them.

"They are making trouble, why don't your government destroy them?!"

Gu Bingren had to quietly come out from another door because he saw more and more tenant farmers and hired workers blocking his door, and questioned Tian Le, the censor who happened to be going out to patrol.

Tian Le replied: "At the Xiao Temple, the regulations on strikes by hired workers and the punishment of the following crimes of conspiracy and treason have long been abolished. As long as they don't kill or beat others, they don't count as riots. Naturally, our government doesn't need to arrest them."

After hearing this, Gu Bingren couldn't help but stumbled, looked at the back of Tian Le who had left in a sedan chair, and said: "I see, your government is their backer, otherwise how could they have the courage to ask me to reduce the rent?" Interest rate cut?!"

Tian Le's sedan chair stopped at this moment.

Obviously Tian Le heard Gu Bingren's words, got off the sedan chair and walked towards Gu Bingren and said, "Gu Gong, I am an official of Ming Dynasty, not your lackeys. You better not forget your position."

As he spoke, Tian Le smiled faintly, showing a chill on his face.

But Gu Bingren was stunned in place, he found that Nan Zhi's official attitude had also changed.

But this time, after Tian Le left in a sedan chair, Gu Bingren spat: "Bah! You want me to reduce the rent and interest rate, there's no way!"

Although Gu Bingren was still unwilling to reduce the rent and interest rate, he still drove back to his home.

As soon as he got to the gate, he still took a look at the tenant farmers who were besieging the gate of his house on strike. After seeing them queuing up to receive white flour steamed buns and vegetable soup, he was obviously ready to continue the demonstration, and his whole face looked desperate. The expression on his face became more obvious, and he couldn't help crying: "When is this a head!"

Then, Gu Bingren couldn't hide the raging fire in his heart, and bared his teeth: "These bastards, when Hai Rui leaves in the future, Jiangling falls, and their backing is gone, I must teach them a lesson. Make their life worse than death!"

"kill!"

As soon as Gu Bingren said this, he saw that his son Gu Jingyi really brought out a group of house slaves to beat the tenant farmers and hired workers who were demonstrating outside the door, and kicked away the officials who were trying to stop them.

But because of this, conflicts broke out between the tenant farmers and hired workers and these Gu family members, and there were scenes of fights and murders everywhere outside the gate of the Gu family.

"Stop it! Stop it!"

Gu Bingren hurried over to stop him, he didn't want people to see the domineering side of his Gu family.

boom!

The patrol team who had been on guard in this area hastily rushed over at this time and stopped the conflict, but also detained Gu Jingyi and a group of slaves under him, and took them to the governor's yamen.

Seeing this, Gu Bingren was even more frightened, hurriedly stopped the patrol team, cupped his hands and said: "Please let the dog go, the dog is also angry for a while!"

"Father! These government officials don't take us gentry seriously anymore. Not only do they not help us, we teach our tenant farmers and hired workers, but they still detain us! All of them really forget who they belong to. Dog!"

Gu Jingyi also spoke at this time.

Snapped!

Hu Huaide, a military officer of the Jinwu Guard of the patrol team, slapped Gu Jingyi in the face, and cursed: "Presumptuous! Don't think you are a husband, I really want to be afraid of you! What kind of dog? kill your dogs!"

"What's more, I'm still the emperor's personal military guard. If the emperor personally grants python jade, you don't have to kneel when you see Fuyuan. What the hell are you qualified to say in front of me who is a dog? Even if it's a dog, I'm still the emperor's dog! "

"Shut your stinky mouth for me! If you talk too much, I'll chop off your bottom first, and say that you insisted on hitting Lao Tzu's muzzle, and the muzzle lost its fire to hit it."

Gu Jingyi suddenly felt a burning pain in his face, and his heart was furious for a while, but he heard Hu Huaide's threat, so he had to endure it, and shed tears, and looked at Gu Bingren: "Father!"

Gu Bingren also froze in place, his face so elongated that it almost touched the bluestone strips on the ground.

Hu Huaide came to Gu Bingren at this time and said: "Lingzi beat the officials and the people for no reason. I am ordered to maintain law and order. Naturally, I will put him in prison and hand it over to the Ministry. If you have any objections, go to the Ministry to discuss it yourself. "

After saying that, Hu Huaide ordered Gu Jingyi and others to be escorted away.

But Gu Bingren did not respond.

Hu Huaide stood in front of Gu Bingren for a while, and suddenly scolded: "What's the matter with you, eunuch, didn't you see the python jade on my waist? How old are you, the ministers have received the gift from Lao Tzu, and they will return the gift!"

At this time, Hu Huaide's chief banner officer, who was also a member of the army and guards, persuaded him: "Forget it, they literati look down on us warriors."

"How can I forget it? To despise the military and guards is to despise the emperor. I have to report this! These Jiangnan eunuchs don't know how to respect the court anymore, they are all the same as that surnamed Lu!"

"Your Majesty has supported us, what are we afraid of?"

Hu Huaide spoke up.

Gu Bingren also came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly replied: "Don't blame me, Xiao Lao lost his mind just now!"

Seeing this, Hu Huaide was satisfied and said: "This is more or less the same, that's all!"

Gu Bingren smiled awkwardly, and after watching Hu Huaide and others leave for a moment, his face darkened: "Jiangling, Jiangling, why on earth do you want these Wubian pariahs to insult me! Do you just hate us so much?!"
