this……

It was the first time that Zhang Juzheng, who was standing in the corner, saw Gao Gong confronting Ge Lao like this, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Guo Pu has long been accustomed to this, but he agrees with Gao Gong's opinion, and looks up at Xu Jie with a firm attitude.

Lin Weiran was not surprised by this. Gao Gong stood upright. Whether it was to successfully launch the new policy or to break the current government pattern, he had the motivation to clean up the court.

However, Gao Gong's argument undoubtedly violated Xu Jie's vital interests. Not to mention that this move would severely damage the Xu Party, just admitting the current chaos in the officialdom has already discredited Xu Jie, the chief assistant.

Although the "Public Security Memorial" presented by Hai Rui pointed at the nose and scolded Jiajing, it actually scolded Xu Jie.

Jiajing was unwilling to accept the trial result of the Ministry of Justice to execute Hai Rui, so he chose to suppress the trial result of the Ministry of Justice to the Silijian. This matter was left unresolved, not because Xu Jie came forward to protect Hai Rui.

That's true, Xu Jie naturally could not accept Gao Gong's proposal, nor could he slander his face. This matter was destined to be a dispute.

"The Yan family members have been cleared, and the court is now clear. I don't know where to start the so-called smoky and smoky chaos!" Xu Jie's face was gloomy and he responded toughly.

Gao Gong had long since distracted from Xu Jie, and immediately accused him and said: "Now, local officials in the Ming Dynasty are seriously corrupt, which makes people live in poverty. Do you still dare to say that the sea is peaceful and the river is clear? If you don't say it far away, Li Shun, the magistrate of Luoyang Prefecture, embezzled silver.

As much as 20,000 taels, shouldn’t this local official be punished?”

Lin Weiran heard Gao Gong's attack so much, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, knowing that Gao Gong was not Xu Jie's opponent.

"Gaoge, you can't generalize it like this! There are not a few corrupt officials in all dynasties. Even in the prosperous era of Yongle, there are still Chen Ying and others in it. If you must say that the court is full of corrupt officials,

This statement not only harmed the hearts of all civil and military officials, but also deprived everyone present of the reputation, including the reputation of you and Master Guo!” Xu Jie immediately quoted the scriptures and finally emphasized in another way.

Zhang Juzheng and others seemed to suddenly realize that Guo Pu and Gao Gong were looking for Guo Pu and Gao Gong. They thought that Guo Pu had served as the Minister of Personnel and Gao Gong served as the Minister of Personnel. These two people undoubtedly had to bear certain responsibilities for this smoky officialdom.

Huh?

Gao Gong also realized the problem, but couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Guo Pu sighed inwardly. Although Gao Gong was full of passion, he was still less scheming after all, and it was difficult to show off his verbal advantage in front of Xu Jie.

Seeing Gao Gong at a disadvantage, he also stood up and explained: "Mr. Yuanfu, Gaoge did not mean that all officials were corrupt officials, but the current court was not very clear, so we can take this opportunity to correct the officialdom.

Wind!"

Gao Gong's brows frowned slightly, and these words undoubtedly showed weakness to Xu Jie. But he also knew in his heart that if Xu Jie refused to admit the current situation in the officialdom, then he had no choice.

"If the court is not very clear, we can plan for a long time, and even let Gaoge serve as the Minister of Personnel in the future!" Xu Jie showed his outstanding politician side and immediately put forward an olive branch.

sharp!

When Zhang Juzheng saw Xu Jie's actions, his eyes lit up slightly.

Seeing that Xu Jie had already made concessions, Guo Pu even wanted Gao Gong to serve as the Minister of Personnel, so he turned his head and looked at Gao Gong.

Gao Gong also realized that Xu Jie could not admit that this was a smoky court, and even more so that he could write the administration of the government into the will, but he looked at Xu Jie deeply.

"Since it is our cabinet ministers' discussion, we can express our attitude, but we also require the same and differences!" Xu Jie expressed his opinion gently, and then struck while the iron was hot and said: "It is only now that the most urgent thing is to stop the Taoist project being practiced, especially Guyu.

Palace, do you have no objection to this proposal?”

Li Chunfang's stance was firm and he stood up very cooperatively and said, "Should you do this, the subordinates have no objection!"

Guo Pu and Gao Gong exchanged glances. Although they were unwilling to be led by Xu Jie, they knew that Guyu Palace and other projects would indeed stop immediately, so they nodded gently.

Xu Jie looked at the three of them with satisfaction, and saw that the matter had fallen under his control. Then he slowly looked at Lin Xuran and asked, "Gei Master Lin, do you have any objections to this?"

Although the good situation was disrupted by Lin Xuran, his years of power struggle could undoubtedly easily dominate the development of the situation. Stopping the projects under construction was undoubtedly the most legitimate move, and Lin Xuran had no reason to object.

Guo Pu and others also turned their heads and looked at Lin Weiran, but they didn't think Lin Weiran had any reason to object.

"Have you ever thought about what is the harm of the emperor in building Taoist buildings?" Lin Qingran asked in response to everyone's eyes.

Xu Jie's brows frowned slightly, and Gao Gong, who was impatient, immediately responded carelessly: "Of course, it is because the emperor is obsessed with practicing Taoism that he has built Taoist buildings in large quantities!"

Guo Pu and Li Chunfang also nodded gently, looking at Lin Xuran in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly raised this question.

"Emperor Wen of Han was also obsessed with practicing Taoism and also built Taoist constructions. Why was the rule of Wen and Jing that was even more praised by the world?" Lin Qingran asked remarks.

this……

Huang Jin and Feng Bao had already arrived outside the palace. When they heard this argument, they could not help but look at each other. It turned out that Lin Feng was so protective of the current emperor and even helped the emperor to clear him.

Gao Gong was a straightforward person and said disapprovingly: "Although Emperor Wen of Han was obsessed with practicing Taoism, he was not obsessed with building Taoist palaces in large quantities, so naturally he would not have much impact!"

Guo Pu and Li Chunfang both agreed with this view and couldn't help but look at Lin Weiran in confusion.

"What the emperor and Emperor Wen of Han did was actually the same thing, but the emperor has done one more thing today, and this is the emperor's biggest ruling mistake!" Lin Junran looked at everyone's eyes and seemed to express his views seriously.

.

Xu Jie realized that Lin Xu Ran was denying his proposal, and immediately said sarcastically: "Georg Lin, what a clever mouth, but even if you say it so much, there is no mistake to stop the current project, right?"

Guo Pu and others looked at Lin Qingran in confusion, but they still didn't know what to sell in Lin Qingran's gourd.

"Of course not, but I thought the most urgent task was not to cure the root cause but to cure the root cause!" Lin Qingran nodded gently first, and then responded in reference to medical terms.

Root and foundation?

Everyone present was smart. When he heard Lin Weiran's metaphor, he knew that the "method of the original" he was referring to was the proposal of Xu Jie to stop Guyu Palace and other projects, while the "root treatment" refers to other things.

this……

Huang Jin and Feng Bao couldn't help but look at each other, but they didn't expect that Gao Gong had just been defeated and Lin Qianran actually stood up to raise trouble again. Today, I'm afraid there will be no peace.

Guo Pu and Li Chunfang exchanged their eyes and found that Lin Qiran always gave people some unexpected answers, and things seemed to be really mysterious.

Gao Gong's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked anxiously: "Gei Master Lin, I wonder what you are referring to?"

"Emperor Wen of Han did not squander a lot of money, this is one of them!" Lin Qingran said seriously in front of everyone's eyes.

When Guo Pu and others heard this, they found that there was no new meaning, and it was even a consensus.

Xu Jie's mouth raised slightly, which coincided with his view. The wisest move he called for the Guyu Hall and other projects under construction this time.

Lin Qingran saw the reactions of the people and then said word by word: "The most important thing is that Emperor Wen of Han did not add taxes to the people, nor did he repeatedly enlist and entrust and entrust the people!"

ah?

When Guo Pu and others heard this argument, they immediately showed shock on their faces. However, after this shock, they found that it seemed to make sense and was more sharp than Xu Jie's observation.

When they were focusing on stopping Taoist construction, they seemed to have thought that this construction of Taoist construction itself is not the biggest sin, and the greatest ruling fault is to build Taoist construction through additional expeditions and sects.

"The resolute Japanese to the southeast can be said to be forced by the situation. However, the emperor has repeatedly thought about the extra expeditions and dispatches to the people to build Taoist palaces despite the financial resources of the court over the years. This is the biggest disadvantage!" Lin Junran looked at him.

Reiterate your point of view to everyone present.

Following Xu Jie's thinking, Lin Qingran saw the problem very clearly: building a palace is not the root cause. Building Taoist construction through additional sects is the biggest root cause.

Zhu Di actually spent more money on building Beijing City. In order to ensure the food problem in Beijing City, he had to re-drag the Grand Canal, which required a lot of money to be spent here.

However, during Zhu Di's reign, the people were still able to live and work in peace. Although the Ming Baochao completely lost its credit, it did not cause much harm to the lower-level people.

In contrast, Emperor Jiajing did not have the "family foundation" of the Zhu Di period. A large part of the money for the construction of various projects was obtained through additional levies and assignments, forcing the people to become refugees and beg for the wilderness.

Compared with the two, Jiajing's construction of Wanshou Palace, rebuilding three major halls, expanding Chengtian Palace and Zichen New Hall and other projects are not considered original sins. The biggest disease is that Jiajing extends a greedy hand to the people and squeezes out the last wealth from the people.

It is precisely because the real correction of the chaos is not to stop Taoist projects, but to curb and reflect on the actions of additional expeditions and sects. This is the biggest fault of the Jiajing government.

this……

Guo Pu looked at Lin Weiran in shock and faintly saw Wu Shan's shadow.

Xu Jie's will focused on safeguarding the interests of the entire civil servant group, but Lin Weiran saw that the biggest problem of this dynasty was "extra-extra-secting and secting", which could be said to be a complaint for the people.

I would like to recommend this book reading app I have been using recently, [app] has many books, all books, and fast updates!

This project that is called a stop-down construction seems important, but it is not very important. Regardless of whether there is a Taoist project that is called a stop-down construction in the will, once the new king takes office, he will actually stop such a Taoist that is useless to him.

project.

On the contrary, in order to satisfy the Jiajing renovation of the Emperor Chengtian Palace, Taoist construction and Beijing Outer City, the people of the Ming Dynasty were repeatedly burdened with heavy additional sects and sects, which was the most important disease to be explained.

If we can reflect on the faults of additional slaughter and sect in the will, it will undoubtedly greatly protect the interests of the people and safeguard the foundation of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Li Chunfang and Zhang Juzheng looked at Lin Junran with complicated eyes, and couldn't help but reexamine the Master Lin.

this……

Huang Jin and Feng Bao were outside the door. When they heard Lin Xuran's remarks, Huang Jin seemed to know Lin Xuran again, while Feng Bao clenched his fists excitedly.

"Mr. Yuanfu, the lower-ranking officials have served as the prefect of Leizhou, the prefect of Guangzhou, and the prefect of Shuntian. It is not easy for the people in every place to be! If we do not take this opportunity to establish a constitution, once the new king follows the emperor, how should the people deal with it?

"Lin Shiran's eyes fell on Xu Jie and immediately questioned.

Gao Gong couldn't help but cough lightly, stood up to protect his disciple and said, "Your Highness Yu is a wise lord!"

"I have no intention of targeting King Yu, but if the regulations are now made, then the people can be worry-free from now on! If this matter can be implemented, then the Ming Dynasty will definitely usher in a prosperous era, and we can also leave our name in history!"

Lin Weiran explained and at the same time threw out the temptation.

Not to mention that King Yu is not a so-called wise ruler at all. If these things were not restricted, the Ming Dynasty court would definitely be getting worse and worse on the path of "extravagance and extra sects".

The destruction of a dynasty actually starts with its abandonment of the people, and this dynasty is undoubtedly making this mistake.

Originally, he could ignore this matter, but he needed to make this argument whether to win over the people or win greater reputation, or to have greater bargaining chips in the future.

"If we stop the additional levy and sect now, how can the new dynasty solve the military expenditure problem? How can the salaries of officials and nobles be solved? What should the entire Ming Dynasty do? Master Lin, this governance of the country cannot be achieved by just one mouth.

, and adapt to local conditions in light of the current situation!" Xu Jie, with his political considerations, immediately opposed it clearly.

"Mr. Yuan Fu, the expenses of the imperial court have their own summer and autumn taxes and food for the people. However, the views of the officials have been expressed very clearly. Extravagance and sect are the greatest chaos in politics! The people are enough, and the king is not enough, please contact Yuan.

Lord Fu encourages us!" Lin Weiran argued with a tough attitude.

He actually knew that the current Ming Dynasty's finances would be difficult to leave the extra suffrage and extra suffrage for a while, but the long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. If it were not for the suppression now, it would have to continue to worsen in the future.

The most important thing is that once the blood draw of the people is reduced, it will undoubtedly force the Ming Dynasty to optimize itself. At least it will make the court more deeply move towards the vassal state, rather than continuing to raise hundreds of thousands of royal families, so that the Ming Dynasty will be able to

In the end, it is difficult to get back.

Of course, he cannot express his opinions on these things yet. After all, these are things that offend people, so many things still need to be taken into consideration.

Guo Pu and others sighed inwardly, turned their heads and looked at Xu Jie. Once upon a time, they always thought that Xu Jie's inaction was an excuse for Lin Shiran to attack, but now it seems to be a truth.

The most important thing is that this prime minister, who is regarded as a "virtuous prime minister", protects the interests of the civil servant group in his will, and this is just a false reputation when he stops the construction project.

When Xu Jie heard Lin Weiran's words come out, he immediately looked at Lin Weiran with a pale face.
