Chapter two hundred and eighteen more and more respect for His Majesty

"Huang Si Niang's house is full of flowers."

"Thousands of flowers are pressing down on the branches."

"Drink and dance every time."

"Thousands of flowers are pressing down on the branches."

Because Emperor Zhu Youxiao asked that in the imperial villages, Tianjin and Qufu, he could directly control the society schools in the imperial villages, Tianjin and Qufu, when they were enlightening children, they should not be limited to teaching other poems and songs to nourish the spirituality of the people.

Therefore, when Xu Guangqi left Tianjin City and passed by a society school, he heard some children's reading of poetry.

Looking at the busy appearance of the people wearing uniform clothes in the workshop in the distance, listening to the sound of reading poems from the children under the Xinjianshe School tile house, Xu Guangqi couldn't help but think of the desolation and decay scenes he saw when he passed by this area many years ago. This made him, who wanted to be more serious, unable to hide his smile, and he was also reluctant to leave the tranquility and peace here.

Therefore, when he saw a wide range of local specialties in front of the street vendors, he had always been reluctant to spend money and asked his servants to buy a lot. He thought to himself: "In the future, I can show His Majesty the new things he bought in Tianjin. I just don't know if this is considered to make the emperor lose his ambition?"

...

"My daughter was forced to abduct by the second master of the Kong family, but I have already said that my daughter has promised her. The second master still refused to accept it and broke my legs. The child's mother was beaten to death. She couldn't find a piece of land if she wanted to be buried. The land was all from the Kong Mansion. She could only find a straw mat and hid it in the sand. But I buried her mother. Soon after, the second master's men asked me to take the body of my daughter. This second master is really not a human being. She owes my family two lives, woo woo!"

"My family originally had 17 acres of land and lived a good life, but on this day, the master of the Kong family looked at a stream of water next to my field and said he wanted to build a garden, so he asked my family to move, saying that he wanted to exchange the same land. But the one that was exchanged for me was 17 acres of land soaked in salt water. I couldn't plant anything. I didn't follow it and went to argue, but I was beaten out and my house was confiscated. I really had a hard life!"

Qufu.

The tenants of the Confucius Mansion of Yuanyan Shenggong were complaining one by one. Under the instigation of Zhang Tongchang and other instructors, they told their blood and tears story one by one.

Not to mention that the Kong family tenants who had the same experience in the local area became more and more angry the more they heard it. Even the officers and soldiers stationed in the 3000th infantry in the Guards camp wanted to curse.

Chen Xin heard the excitement and couldn't help but slam his thighs and said, "Damn it, the Kong family deserves to be exterminated by the imperial court. I asked myself that I was a playboy in the past, but at most I just tease the girls in the brothel. Even if I really slept, I would reward some money. Damn, I didn't see such a bad person, and I would kill the girl directly! No wonder it was said that after the Hu Guan, if I were descendants of the saints, I wouldn't be so beastly!"

"That's right, I haven't been so chaotic in Datong. I have to take it into consideration. The Qufu pseudo-Confucian clan was really not caring about anything here before, as if this was their lawless place! I deserved to be destroyed! Now it seems that we are also a way to eliminate harm to the people!"

Guo Mu also agreed.

"Okay! Dear fellow villagers don't have to cry anymore. Wipe away the tears and forget the grief. Now your good days have come. Because the pseudo-Confucian Mansion has done many evil things, the emperor has sent us to get rid of them. Then, you will become the imperial village households directly managed by the emperor in the future. All the land of the Kong family will be distributed to you. In the future, the rent will be reduced to as little as the imperial village. Except for you who cannot sell the land to others, you can pass it on to your descendants. You can plant it all the time, and no one can occupy your land. If anyone takes over, including us Yulin Guards, you can all go to Beijing to file a complaint with the emperor."

A training instructor of the Guards was relieved after several Kong family tenants complained and promulgated the imperial edict.

Although it was not very realistic that the instructor said that they could go to Beijing to file a complaint with the emperor, the previous words did indeed make the Kong tenants excited after hearing this, especially the content of dividing the land and reducing rent.

For a moment, these people knelt and kowtowed gratefully to the instructor: "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"No need to thank me, if you want to thank the emperor."

The instructor said.

"Thank you, my husband, long live the emperor!"

The tenants of the Kong family thanked the emperor for this.

"Gei Master, this is the current situation where our Yulin Guard organized the Kong family tenants to complain. These tenants have understood that the Kong family was worthy of being destroyed, and no longer believed that the imperial court was going to destroy Kong to harm them. Now most of the tenants in Qufu have been reorganized into imperial villages and have also divided a lot of land. In the end, according to Your Majesty's instructions, these young and strong men have been recruited to train on the grounds of guarding the emperor's imperial villages. In the future, they can be a good source of troops for the Yulin Guard."

After Xu Guangqi arrived in Qufu and saw the complaints from the Kong tenant, Zhang Tongchang reported to Xu Guangqi.

Xu Guangqi nodded after hearing this.

At the same time, Xu Guangqi couldn't help but complain: "From Tianjin to Qufu now, Your Majesty's way of letting the court take the initiative to educate the people, letting the people complain about the wrongs, and then promoting the way of loyalty and filial piety is more effective than a simple and empty sentence of the underground gentry. The so-called cunning and unruly people in the past are even more grateful to the emperor's kindness than many scholars. If this continues, internal troubles will arise!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The Qingshang Qufu was training the most basic spear assassination and knife-cutting techniques by the officers and soldiers of the Yulin Guard in an open space.

Xu Guangqi happened to see a scene and couldn't help but smile again.

What made him even more happy was that the next moment he saw a Yulin Guard officer and soldier carrying water and cleaning the yard for an old lady's house.

Although Xu Guangqi knew that His Majesty the Emperor had issued an order to ask Zhang Tongchang to try to conduct a test of the military and civilian relationship in Qufu, after witnessing this scene with his own eyes, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's Your Majesty's wise! This is the king's army!"

The newly built Tianjin City is the cradle of Zhu Youxiao's pilot industrialization.

A large number of manufacturing-related factory workshops are concentrated in Tianjin, and hundreds of thousands of refugees have become new residents of Tianjin by using this as workers, and have escaped the fate of displacement.

But because civil servants were implementing the decisions of the emperor in Tianjin, the reading atmosphere in Tianjin was stronger.

Now Qufu is considered a pilot site for Zhu Youxiao to carry out land reform.

The original Kong family tenants became self-cultivated farmers who directly belonged to the emperor. Because they had temporary military control in the Guards, they had more militarized management than Tianjin and conducted new types of military-civilian relations.

But Xu Guangqi liked it very much in both Tianjin and Qufu now. He was also reflecting on why there are so many towns in Songjiang where weaving workshops and cotton yarn workshops are concentrated. Why are there no such phenomenon of people living and working in peace like Tianjin? There are still many people living in wine, meat and meat, and there are still freezing bones on the road. Why does Jinshanwei, near his hometown, still have no such harmonious scenes of military and civilians getting along with each other. A large number of military households fleeing, the fields are deserted, and officers and servants often bother nearby farmers like bandits.

As an official with political ambitions, after inspecting Tianjin and Qufu, Xu Guangqi began to feel more sincere in his heart that His Majesty, his emperor, seemed to have a great wisdom that he had not understood. He felt that he had figured it out, but he seemed not to figure it out.
