Chapter 1009 Speculation(2/2)
4. If the robber does not surrender, he will be pardoned in the suburbs in the future. If he is not exempted, he will be punished with reason.
The ministers in the palace couldn't help but think to themselves that the problem caused by the swarm of thieves is not here at all.
However, the officials were very appreciative of An Tao's suggestion. Look at the mountains of money and silk in the emperor's treasury. No matter how many reforms are made, the materials are drawn from heaven and earth, but this money does not fall from the sky but grows from the ground.
Taking advantage of this incident, Deng Runfu reported: "Cheng Shimeng and Geng Wan diverted the river water to flood the east of Jingdong and opened up 9,000 hectares of silt fields."
"After accounting for the use of silted fields, the yield per mu is less than three husks of dendrobium and has increased to 45 husks. At least one or two husks of dendrobium can be harvested."
After hearing this, the official's face was full of joy and he said: "The Bianhe River transports six million stones per year, which is transferred from the Yangtze and Huaihe River. If more grain can be harvested near Bianjing, the pain of transporting thousands of miles can be relieved."
Wang Gui on the side said: "We should discuss the rewards from the Yutian Division!"
The officials were very happy. At this time, the censor Peng Ruli said: "Your Majesty, the siltation of the fields is very costly. Since the seventh year of Xining, more than 155,000 yuan have been spent. Previously, Yangwu County used 45,000 soldiers to silt the fields.
As many as 100,000 people, in fact, it is a waste of people and money. Even after the silt is released, the main current is cut off, making it difficult for ships to move."
"Nowadays, many officials are using the siltation matter to gain advancement. I ask you to dismiss the siltation department!"
Hearing what Peng Ruli said really made the officials disappointed and even unhappy.
Nowadays, the reform is no longer the work of Wang Anshi alone. Before, some officials still talked about the new law established by Wang Anshi in front of the emperor.
This was heard by Cai Que, who was good at observing the master's intentions, and he refuted it in the palace: "The new law was established by the emperor. How can we say that it is Wang Anshi's contribution?"
Therefore, criticism of the new law made officials somewhat unhappy.
However, Peng Ruli's official family knew that this person had no selfish motives, otherwise he would not have refused face to face when Deng Wan promoted him to the position of supervisory censor.
The official said: "Peng Qing's words are reasonable. Let's not discuss the rewards of Cheng and Geng."
The official's attitude of humbly accepting advice had just been expressed, when Shen Kuo, as the third envoy, felt that it was an encouragement and a hint.
Immediately Shen Kuo stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that the household service payment should be reduced or exempted, and I suggest that the imperial court combine the old service law with the service exemption law, and implement a policy of parallel employment."
As soon as Shen Kuo said this, the officials' expressions suddenly changed.
Everyone in the court knew about the reduction or exemption of household service fees, and Zhang Yue and Han Jiang had always been supportive of changing the service law.
You, Shen Kuo, are now standing up to oppose this law. Is it because of Han Jiang Zhangyue's instructions?
At this moment, Zhang Yue could not help but curse Shen Kuo.
If you want to speculate in politics, this is not the case.
