Chapter 282: Strike Hard (Replenishment)
Cai Bian is not a good person, but a gentle and considerate person. He treats others with lenient attitude and rarely loses his temper.
Seeing such a person furious, he shouted, and the green tiled room was silent, and all the officials of all sizes were so angry that they dared not breathe.
Zhang Dun was obviously angry, his eyes were full of fierceness, and he kept thinking about coping strategies in his heart.
It is not surprising that the local government has methods to deal with the imperial court to measure land. To break this barrier, brute force alone is not enough. The world is not based on the people, but on the "gentry"!
The gentry supported the people and also maintained the court.
Without the gentry, the people will undoubtedly wander and panic; without the gentry, the court will lose its foundation and be in turmoil!
The court needed gentry to "guard one side", which was the foundation of the Song Dynasty's country.
It’s okay to have a magistrate without a magistrate, but it’s not a big problem without a gentry!
Zhang Dun raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "I think the Ministry of Justice is not enough..."
Before he finished speaking, anxious steps rang out outside.
Zhang Dun paused and looked out the door with Cai Bian.
I saw the Minister of Justice Lai Zhishao and the Minister of Personnel Lin Xi. The two of them looked solemn and came in together.
Lin Xi looked at the expressions of the two husbands, looked at Lai Zhishao again, and said directly: "The magistrate of Yangwu County is missing."
If it were in the past, it would be no big deal, but in connection with the previous incident, Cai Bian immediately shouted: "Talk about it specifically!"
Lai Zhishao said calmly: "The report from Yangwu County did not say anything. I found a way to investigate. It is said that the magistrate of Yangwu County went down to inspect. On the way, he encountered bandits. More than ten yamen runners came back, and only five of them were back. Yangwu County was abducted. Yangwu County was worried that the bandit problem would affect the assessment, so he did not report it secretly."
Cai Bian's chest was fluctuating violently, and he shouted: "Okay, okay! This is still under the feet of the emperor. If they arrive outside the capital, will they be rebelling?"
When he came to Shao, Lin Xi was as deep as water, and Cai Bian said something angry, but if he was put on Jingdong Road and other places, it would not be possible, it would be inevitable! The people on the peninsula are in chaos one after another, and there are many other places!
Zhang Dun looked at the two of them, suppressed his anger, and said, "Go to the official family with me."
The crowd didn't say anything, and the matter became bigger and bigger. It was no longer something they could simply deal with or cover up.
When the four of them came to the Chuigong Hall, they saw Zhao Xu reading something.
Zhao Xu didn't raise his head and greeted casually: "Sit as you like."
What Zhao Xu read in his hand was a joint memorial by several ministers of the court, which was caused by the memorial on the "Imperial Examination" or something in front of the Taixue School.
This memorial details the importance of the "Imperial Examination" and its relationship with the "people's hearts". It frankly states that "Imperial Examination is the only way for people in the world to advance and cannot be cut off" and "If the Imperial Examination is cut off, the country and society will be in danger."
Zhao Xuzai looked carefully for a while, raised her head, looked at Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and others, and said with a smile: "What's the matter with you all?"
As the Minister of Justice, Lai Zhishao stood up and told the matter from beginning to end.
Cai Bian also sent the memorials from all over the country to Zhao Xu's desk, and silently retreated without sitting down.
Zhao Xu didn't read the memorial handed over by Cai Bian. He just listened to Lai Zhishao's introduction and knew it in his heart.
He looked unmoved and was worried.
He had thought about this situation a long time ago, and it was not surprising at all. Most of the dynasty changes in history were related to "land". The greed of the gentry class was well known and had no foundation at all.
When Zhang Dun, Cai Bian and others saw that Zhao Xu did not speak for a long time, they did not dare to speak.
At this beginning, almost all the measuring teams failed to succeed, and even lost a county magistrate. If it spread, what kind of face would the court have? Opposition will be rampant!
Zhao Xu looked up at the few people, then pondered for a moment, and said, "Chen Pi, call all the ministers and the six ministers of the ministers."
Tangerine peeled sideways and said, "Yes."
He said, turning around and exiting through the side door, and instructing someone to pass the message.
Zhao Xu took the teacup and drank a sip of tea, still thinking freely. This matter was the most important part of his reform and the foundation of everything. Similarly, it was also the core interest of the gentry class, and land was everything!
If he continues to promote it, he can think of more intense means. Moreover, these means will appear repeatedly in national promotion.
Therefore, it is necessary to deal with decisively, vigorously and quickly to eliminate as much as possible and accelerate progress.
Not long after, Su Song and Han Zongdao came. Both of them had learned the news. After saluting, they sat on the chair, silent.
Then, several other ministers came, as if they had known the news, and they were all solemn.
Zhao Xu looked at the crowd with a plain expression and said, "Under the feet of the emperor, my prime minister of the Song Dynasty is the most prosperous place in the world. Last year, everyone told me that the peace and peace of the Song Dynasty is a rare prosperous era in ancient times. Is this what you told me about the prosperous era?"
Su Song, Zhang Dun and his group could not sit still, everyone raised their hands and bowed and said, "I am aware of the crime."
Zhao Xu had a expressionless face and said, "I am most annoying to you. Say, the solution!"
Prime Minister Su Song is not the most acute problem. Generally, he doesn’t speak out, so Zhang Dun is naturally the one who takes the conversation.
Zhang Dun looked stern and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I would like to expand the inspection department to vigorously eliminate illegal people, especially to hinder the 'new law'. Anyone who arrests first and then examines it must not delay the progress of the 'new law'!"
Wang Cun, the Minister of Works, immediately stepped out and said, "If this continues, I don't know how many people will be arrested. Kaifeng Prefecture will be in chaos, and the subordinates will oppose it!"
Zhang Dun glanced at Wang Cun. This person was recommended by Su Song, and snorted coldly: "I want to see how messy can go to it!"
Zhang Dun's tone was as strong as iron, and he had obviously thought about it.
Wang Cun turned to Zhang Dun, and refused to give in, and shouted: "Kaifeng Prefecture is in chaos. What should I do if I promote the whole country in the future? Mr. Zhang, aren't you worried that the whole country will follow the chaos? For such a major matter, Mr. Zhang still has to act rampant?"
"I think who dares to deal with Kaifeng Prefecture!" Zhang Dun looked fierce and said in a deep voice: "In the matter of the 'new law', the court must not show weakness, let alone be weak. They must severely crack down on their resistance and be lucky!"
Cai Bian listened and nodded naturally.
There is no way to turn back in the "New Method". If the beginning cannot be smooth, there are still many difficulties and obstacles in the future. Therefore, the difficulties in front of you must be solved by thunder to shock all ghosts and monsters!
"alright."
Wang Cun wanted to say something again, but was interrupted by Zhao Xu.
Everyone looked at Zhao Xu in a stern expression.
Zhang Dun’s attitude is one thing, and the most important thing is the official family!
Zhao Xu looked at the crowd and his eyes fell on Xu General, saying, "Isn't there any bandits in Yangwu County? The Ministry of War allocated five thousand people to the Zhengshi Hall to regulate, and was specially used to eliminate bandits. All dispatches were decided by the Zhengshi Hall, and there was no need to inform the Privy Council."
General Xu pondered for a moment and said, "I will receive the order."
Wang Cun wanted to stop him, but Zhao Xu just glanced at him, and his face slit up and he could only retreat silently.
With these five thousand people, Zhang Dun was enough to be rampant in the sixteen counties under Kaifeng Prefecture. Those small measures that have played a big role in preventing the implementation of the "new law" will face the fight back from the storm!
