I am the king of the dead

"It's me." Yu Qian was stunned for a moment, and he identified it seriously, but he has traveled too many roads, and he can't remember it at all.

Yu Qian wanted to take off the mask, but after thinking of the emperor's advice, he didn't take it off in the end, the emperor's order must not be violated.

"Master Qingtian! You're back!" The older old man was about to kneel when he heard the voice, and there was trembling in his voice. He thought he would never see him again, but Yu Qian stopped him from kneeling.

Yu Qian, the governor for 24 years, is a person who is very good at dealing with the people. Besides, the Ming Dynasty prohibits private kneeling and bowing and Jishou ceremony, which are etiquettes that can only be done to your majesty.

He did not accept this courtesy because he considered it disrespectful to His Majesty.

Although the bowing ceremony and kneeling ceremony were very common in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor also repeatedly reprimanded, but the effect was very small.

Yu Qian gave the Dendrobium in his hand to the soldier, took the old man's hand and asked, "You can recognize me when I wear a mask."

"Old man, I have something to ask you."

"Is there a bully running rampant in the village?" Yu Qian asked the first question.

It has not been a day or two for him to go deep into the grassroots. After the food is released, the bully grabbing the food is the most important thing, and he wants to find out this group of people.

This group of bullies was easy to deal with, and they were brought to the military to practice for a few years.

The army is an easy place to make people mature. Although he sees Shi Heng as a nose instead of a nose and eyes instead of eyes, he also admits that the soldiers brought out by Shi Heng at least abide by the military orders, do not rob or steal, and do not kill or steal. .

Therefore, Shi Heng's soldiers were very strong.

"There are some." The old man told Yu Qian in detail about the situation of the two bullies in the village, and Yu Qian motioned to the accompanying captain of the Yongzi Camp to go look for someone.

Yu Qian looked at the dilapidated village, where there were ruins and ruins. He sighed heavily and continued to ask, "Old old man, may there still be squires in this village?"

"They've all run away, the Oara people, they ran away before they came." The old man's face showed a relaxed expression instead, it seemed that these gentlemen were more terrifying than the Oara people.

Yu Qian nodded involuntarily, and repeatedly exchanged the idea of ​​His Majesty's farm law with the old man.

This kind of collective farming redistribution, His Majesty takes [-]%, and others redistribute the method, is extremely novel, but the old man is still very puzzled.

The old man frowned and said, "What if the lazy people in the village don't work?"

Yu Qian explained again and cabled: "Isn't this the farm's head? Your Majesty can't say lynching or corporal punishment."

"A lazy person, if you talk a lot, you will naturally not be lazy. Those who do not change after repeated teachings are thrown into the army and practiced for a few years."

"What do you think, old man?"

The old man shook his head again and said, "What about the wasteland? If we have to open up wasteland every year, what should we count as wasteland?"

"Every year, people from the county will come to survey, and the wasteland opened in the village will naturally belong to the farm." Yu Qian said immediately, this is something that has been discussed with His Majesty for a long time before.

"The fish scale book is made every year, but there is one in the county, but not in the prefect's yamen." The old man said cheerfully: "The governor Yu is a person who lives in the Jiuzhongtian. How can you know the suffering of the people?"

Yu Qian immediately understood what the old man meant.

The fish scale book is the field book of Daming. Every year in the county, when people collect the Spring and Autumn Fu, they send people to inspect, but they often make a book, just make a book, but never report it.

The purpose of concealing the report is actually very simple. The fish scale book involves the word tax and tax. Without it, it is a card to eat and take.

Yu Qian immediately understood the difficulty of this farmhouse. The inspection of fields and acres involved the word "clearing fields". Which was not a bloody storm?

He knew more than the old man, but he didn't refute it. The old man always likes to lecture people. This way of communication makes it easier to hear the truth.

"Old man, are there any bandits and bandits around here?" Yu Qian asked another question. For the common people, it is not only the gentry and the government, but also all kinds of bandits who fall for the grass. Horse bandits, burning, killing and looting from time to time.

Especially when Daming was defeated in Tumubao, the number of bandits suddenly increased. Yang Hong and Guo Deng were combing around in Datong of Xuanfu, but bandits were absolutely rampant.

The old man shuddered uncontrollably and said: "Yes! A few days ago, the village next door was also set on fire, but the governor didn't see it, but it was miserable. That pretty little lady was kidnapped by more than a dozen. ."

"The children were all hung upside down on the beams, and they were bled to death. That's a miserable thing!"

"I know, can the old man send someone to lead the way?"

"The old man doesn't know something, so, he has been promoted, and now he is leading the army."

"It's just that the mountain road is very rugged, and one cannot get a thief's lair. If there are more thieves, he can go to the county government to report to the county magistrate, and the county magistrate will naturally report to Xuanfu." Yu Qian frowned, with a lot of chill in his tone.

What is the difference between the methods of those profiteers and bandits who hoard goods in Beijing?

All damn people.

Affected by Zhu Qiyu, Yu Qian, a good old man, seems to have become a bit violent, but it is not a bad thing, and he will not be angry with the common people.

"The old man is getting old, but there is still a young servant in the village who knows about it. I will come to him." The old man nodded again and again.

Yu Qian found that the people were not enthusiastic about the farm method. They knew the benefits of this farm method, which was born out of the military colony method, but they knew the difficulties better than Yu Qian.

Living above the nine heavens, can you observe the suffering of a moment, and the suffering of a lifetime?

However, the people are very concerned about the eradication of bandits and are highly motivated.

Yu Qian couldn't help but remember that when Jin Lian and Chen Mao mentioned the three-year reduction in Fujian Fu, His Majesty was quite shocked and asked the people how little they wanted?

The people have no concept of justice in their hearts, they just want to live, that's all.

Yu Qian sighed heavily, asking for the truth, how could Yu Qian not know?

The people of Daming didn't want much. As long as they were fed and alive, they would be extremely loyal to the court.

Yu Qian was too lazy to go to the bandit suppression.

The biggest difficulty in suppressing bandits is to know where the opponent is, not to beat them.

The army surrounded the mountain, and the general artillery was pushed down the mountain. A burst of artillery bombardment broke the mountain gate. A row of sub-and-mother artillery was placed at the foot of the mountain, firing one after another, and the Ming army pushed it flat.

Then the whole cottage was set on fire, and the end of these bandits was that they could not even see the ashes, and were blown away by a gust of mountain wind.

This is shocking!

It is an allusion to Shang Yang, who said that if you move wood, you can give fifty gold, and if someone does it, they will give it immediately, so the decree is clear.

But in fact, what Shang Jun really believed was that when private fights were prohibited, he directly beheaded more than a thousand people who fought privately, and the wind of private fights disappeared without a trace.

The other is to punish Qin Huiwen King Ying Si.

When Ying Si was the prince, he violated the prohibition. Shang Yang said, "If the monarch really wants to implement the rule of law, he must start with the prince. The prince cannot be punished by ink, so he will punish his master with ink punishment."

What is ink punishment?

Tattooing, tattooing on the face.

Yingsi committed a crime, Gongziqian and Gongsun Jia were tattooed, and Gongziqian even had the bridge of his nose shaved.

His Majesty punished the thieves by means of thunder, just to remove wood and Lixin.

Of course, His Majesty also let out the wind, if the bandits are willing to go down the mountain, there will be no lawbreakers, and the service in Yaoshan for five, ten, or 20 years can atone for their crimes.

Your Majesty is still very kind. He didn't directly praise everyone, but he gave him a chance to reform himself.

Yu Qian wrote what he saw and heard along the way, what he saw and thought, in his letters, and His Majesty's thoughts were excellent.

But Yu Qian has been immersed in the officialdom for many years and knows that the biggest malpractice is to do bad things with good intentions.

Obviously the starting point is good, but it has not been fully investigated and understood. When it is implemented, the preparation is not sufficient, and the implementation is deviated, which eventually leads to good governance turning into bad governance.

This kind of thing is not uncommon.

For example, in the Northern Song Dynasty, one of Changping’s new laws, the Young Crop Law, was originally a good law that benefited farmers. The people had no money to buy seeds, and they couldn’t cultivate them. The land was deserted.

But in the end, it was executed as a green crop loan, and the people were miserable and complained.

Yu Qian tried to be as specific as possible, telling His Majesty the difficulties and his own supplementary opinions. The farm law led by the Daming government is gradually approaching maturity.

The process of the collective farms in Daming was perfected at an alarming rate when Zhu Qiyu proposed and Yu Qian added.

"Official man, drink the medicine." Mrs. Dong held the fresh bamboo leeks sealed by His Majesty and handed it to Yu Qian. Yu Qian took off his mask and drank it all in one gulp.

Since he left Beijing and went out, he never took off his mask, mainly because he was afraid of Mrs. Dong's nagging.

In addition, the medicine of the Tai Hospital is also symptomatic, and the symptoms of coughing to the point of being unable to sleep in previous years were immediately relieved.

Yu Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and this chronic illness finally had the possibility of remission.

Yu Qian didn't stop writing his letters. He already knew the news of Dongshengwei. He was a little stunned and worried about the emperor's marriage in Yubei.

Daming is thriving!The realm of thriving vitality and competition of all things is right in front of you!

But why the emperor suddenly came like this, who can stand it?

However, Yu Qian has 24 years, 14 years of which are the orthodox years, so naturally he knows who this person is.

His Majesty will be furious, but he is somewhat mentally prepared, and he has done all the things that knock on the door before closing. These things are nothing.

After thinking for a long time, he continued to write the memorial. The only way to stop him at this time was to bring Zhu Qizhen over from the north.

"Yue Qian, after you return to Beijing with this letter, stay with Your Majesty and listen to it. Your Majesty should let you go to the north to find the Oira people and discuss the matter of taking back the Emperor." Yu Qian solemnly handed over the letter in his hand. To Yue Qian.

Yue Qian held the letter in his hand, and he returned to Beijing with the edict of decree without a seal, and then preached in Fengtian Hall.

Yu Qian asked Yue Qian to return to Beijing, and the meaning was very obvious.

If talking about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, Yue Qian was the one who did not want Zhu Qizhen to come back. Although he did not do the forgery of the imperial edict, it was indeed what he preached.

As the Supreme Emperor, marrying in the north, the world is shaking, the more unpopular Zhu Qizhen is, the better.

Yue Qian held Yu Qian's memorial, bowed his head, and rushed to the capital on a fast horse.

Although Yu Qian has no famous words, but His Majesty wants to kill, he is very clear, let Yue Qian go, the meaning is very clear.

I can take it, can I come back, that's all.

Chapter 95 It's freezing cold, it's inconvenient to come and go

Zhu Qiyu was flipping through a book in his hand, which was the "Water Margin" in Fang's block-printed edition.

As one of the four famous novels of the Water Margin, Zhu Qiyu had already heard about it, but before he was reborn to the Ming Dynasty, he was busy and never really read this book, and only watched TV series to a limited extent.

This square engraved version of "Water Margin" has a relatively large layout, the characters are as large as money, mostly used in Zhao style, with clear lines, black mouth and double fish tail, engraved with sentence reading, excellent paper and ink.

Punctuation is also used, and the vernacular is used, which makes it easy to read.

This was sent by the great scholar Chen Xun, who stood by and waited for His Majesty's instructions.

"Why is there a sentence reading in the readings of the common people in Fangke, but not in my memorials!"

"Why are there so many vulgar characters in the books of the people engraved in the square, and there are all uncommon characters in my memorials??" Zhu Qiyu frowned, and found that the matter was not simple.

Doesn't this make it harder to read?Every time he broke a sentence, he had a headache.

On the other hand, citing scriptures according to the classics, but also to break sentences, and there are still many uncommon words.

Chen Xun was taken aback by the question, then bowed his head and said: "Eh... After all, it is an official document, and it is better to use orthographic characters. If you use colloquial and colloquial characters, how proper is it?"

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "Pass it on. In the future, the official document will be read with additional sentences. If you can use the common words, you can use the common words, so as not to misunderstand and make mistakes."

Chen Xun bowed his head and said, "The minister leads the order."

The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty liked to issue edicts using popular and common words, which was a tradition passed down from the Great Ancestor. Although it was not so practiced during the orthodox years, His Majesty's requirements did not go beyond the etiquette taught by the emperor.

Chen Xun naturally had no reason to object.

"This book is printed very well. My Da Ming Fang Engraving is so good. Yes, this Chen Jingji, it is very good to run this Ru'an Poetry Society." Zhu Qiyu flipped through the first volume and nodded again and again. a lot of.

The scripture factory is the three major scripture factories under the Director of Internal Affairs, the Hanjing Factory, the Taojing Factory, and the Fanjing Factory. There are more people, but this was set up by the Supervisor of Li.

The printing is exquisite and exquisite, but the collation is not precise, and there are often mistakes, which is often criticized.

Eunuchs read less, and make them well, but they make a lot of mistakes.

"Jianyang and Jianoufang are very prosperous, and there are many bookstores. Yu, Liu, Xiong, Zheng, Yang, Chen, Yu, etc. are all book-carving families. They have been passed down from generation to generation and their operations are prosperous."

"Jianyang Yongzhongli and Chonghuali, every Monday and Saturday every month, there is a book market, and the world's merchants gather, which is not found in other parts of the world." Chen Xun replied with his head down.

This is Zhu Di's literary and martial arts at that time. Anyone who has language can have it, but words are not.Zhu Di sent Zheng He to the West on seven voyages. The Chinese dictionary book is the hard currency in hard currency. Even the European royal family got married and used the thread-bound book as a betrothal gift, which was almost as important as gems and gold.

"When the late emperor went to the Western Ocean, it was hard to find this Jianyang calligraphy." Chen Xun was a scholar of Yongle, so he knew the grand occasion of that year.

It is a pity that since the suspension of sea trade in the ninth year of Xuande, this folk carving has become worse every day.

Fujian, where Jianyang is located, is also in a mess because of Ye Zongliu-Deng Maoqi's civil unrest.

The Ming Dynasty, which was famous for its literary and martial arts, actually had an old-fashioned mood when Chen Xun was alive, which made Chen Xun, a great scholar, extremely anxious.

The Ru'an Poetry Society also has 14 people, and they are raised with the Fengyang Poetry Society. They are all authentic southerners.

The Ru'an Poetry Society wrote directly to Chen Jingji, and he is also the head of the Hulin Shuanggui Hall. This publication is naturally excellent.

Zhu Qiyu glanced at the map and always felt that Jianyang was familiar. After thinking about it for a long time, he sighed and said, "Jianyang is in Fujian, right? Song Xin is mistaken for the famous city of Wenzhi!"

Although Zhu Qiyu knew that Ye Zongliu caused the winter sacrifice and Deng Maoqi couldn't bear it because of the miners, it was the result of social contradictions.
