"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that business should be prosperous."
The hundred officials were stunned, but they saw Fang Xing Shi Ran coming out of class, and then leaned over and said: "Your Majesty, most of the taxes paid by the Ming Dynasty are paid in their true colors, although they are enough, but they lack money.
How about the treasure money, Lord Xia is an expert, and the minister will not repeat it here, but just want to talk about his views on taxation. ” The relatives all looked sideways, and Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, who came to the court today, looked at Fang Xing coldly, and then whispered to Zhang Fu in front of him: "Your sister-in-law is fun, obviously he was knighted for his military merits, but he ran to the side of the civil official, what does he look like if he is not literate or martial!"
” Zhang Fu didn't look back, his lips moved slightly: "Your Majesty allowed him to run around, do you still have an opinion?"
” Fang Xing often cut into the ranks of civil officials, and some people have also impeached him for this, but Zhu Di seems to think that the court class has no vitality, and Fang Xing, who has been cut in the queue for many times, is better, and directly ignores these impeachments.
Zhu Yuan knotted, and glared at Fang Xing hatefully.
"Your Majesty, the salary of our dynasty has always been a big problem, if you give too much, there is no money in the court, and if you give less, hundreds of officials are embarrassed, after all, not everyone has such a wealth and skill as a minister!"
"Hahahaha!"
Fang Xing's words immediately won the favor of many people, especially the civil officials, and the low-grade ones were almost the Moonlight Clan.
Zhu Di listened quietly, the salary of 100 officials in the Ming Dynasty was set by Zhu Yuanzhang, and it also belonged to the ancestral system.
But just now Fang Xing said that this ancestral system was flawed, but he couldn't see anyone come out to impeach.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
At the end of the day, it's a matter of interest!
"At present, the taxes of the Ming Dynasty mainly come from the fields, and of course the farmers have no money, so the taxes are mainly paid by grain."
Fang Xing took the opportunity to look up and glanced at Zhu Di, and saw that he was expressionless, so he said: "But the consequence of a single tax source is that the farmers are miserable, and in some places the taxes are eighty percent, forcing the farmers to flee with their families and flee into exile. ” Fang Xing was not the first person to expose this matter, some people had already been on the show, saying that the local farmers were too bitter and the local officials were too greedy.
Everyone knows more or less what kind of goods the officials below are, so no one dares to come out and say that the taxes of the dynasty are not so high!
In the silent court, only Fang Xing's voice echoed.
"And the military tun has also begun to erode, civil and military officials collude with each other, and the embezzlement of fields has happened from time to time, and there are not a few people who eat empty salaries, right?"
Fang Xing looked at Meng Ying.
Jin Zhong's heart warmed slightly, Fang Xing didn't shoot at him, this is friendship.
Meng Ying looked at Zhu Di and said with difficulty: "There are such things, but there shouldn't be many." ” Fang Xing smiled: "Master Meng, not necessarily!
The lower officials have heard that those who are unwilling to serve can escape as long as they give some benefits to the civil and military officials, and the annual military salary has been embezzled in a grand manner, isn't this much?
” Meng Ying couldn't answer, this is the unspoken rule, and everyone in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies knows it.
It's just that at present, it is only erosive in the locality, and the guards in the border area still maintain their combat effectiveness.
Zhu Di snorted coldly: "Fang Xing, what do you want to say?"
” Meng Ying's back was instantly wet with cold sweat.
Fang Xing said: "Your Majesty, the local guard is eroded, and the minister is worried that this wind will spread to the border fortress, or there is a warning signal in the local area and there is no emergency, and the center needs to deploy a large army to sweep it away. ” "Xinghebo is alarmist."
Jin Youzi came out of the class and said: "Today, the Ming Haiqing River Yan, the local people have not heard of such a traitor for a long time, can Xing Hebo be more rigorous when talking about things?"
” Fang Xing smiled, looked around and said, "Lord Jin's words remind me of Bian Que, hehe!"
” Bian Que saw that Cai Huangong's story was rarely unknown, so Jin Youzi was furious.
Do you say I'm blind?
Or am I a blind guy!
Zhu Di squinted and looked down, and there was more than one thought turning in his heart.
Fang Xing said: "Your Majesty, this matter is urgent, otherwise it will spread, and no one will dare to do it at that time, and the implication will be too great!"
” This is a blatant slander of civil and military officials!
The civil and military two courtiers were a little eyebrow-raising, and soon Zhu Yong came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has been to see a lot of guards, the personnel are neat, the drills are skillful, and Xing Hebo is grandstanding!"
” "Your Majesty."
Fang Xing didn't refute Zhu Yong's words, "Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty is full of enemies, and if I don't show force, I will be beaten, and I think that I should thoroughly investigate the corruption of the guard and revive the majesty of the Ming army, and then ......
Then use knives and guns to get all the resources you need for Daming!
” It's not too early!
If it drags on any longer, there will be no one available, and how much time will it take to retrain the troops?
Zhu Di squinted his eyes and said: "I have heard about this matter, and I have my own opinions!"
” In the fifth year of Yongle, there was a twist in the imperial history to say this, and it was more important than today, but when Zhu Di sent someone down, he found that it had become a dead end.
The military status of the Ming Dynasty is a lifelong system, and it is an inheritance system.
The biggest reason for the erosion of the guard is that the northerners go to the south to serve as soldiers, and the southerners, on the contrary, miss their homes for a long time.

In addition, they were privately detained and enslaved by officials, and those who did not escape were numb or cowardly by tossing.
The bold ones have fled, what combat power does such a guard still have?
Of course, Zhu Di knows these drawbacks, but if he wants to get rid of them, he must undergo major surgery.
But it takes time and courage!
And at the cost of it!
Jin Youzi glanced at Fang Xing with disdain, and deliberately said when he returned to work: "Is Xing Hebo preparing to block His Majesty on the New Year's Day?"
” Zhu Yong also chuckled, and the beard on his face looked a little charming, which made Fang Xing retch.
"Daming is now leveling the four seas, and the ministers congratulate Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yong made a start, and the rest of the officials came out to congratulate him.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
"Minister..."
The sound gradually reverberated in the cleverly designed hall.
Fang Xing stood there alone, his back straight, his eyes sharp.
This Ming Dynasty has many drawbacks, but these civil and military officials do not want to make progress, and only want to maintain the status quo.
When encountering innovations that require big moves, no one will come forward to agree, even Hu Guang, the 'first assistant' who wants to leave a name in the history books.
Zhu Di didn't see any joy, but after accepting the congratulations, he dispersed.
Hu Guang caught up with Fang Xing, and said with a pale face: "Xinghebo, is it necessary to say these words at such a time?"
” "Yes!"
Fang Xing turned around and stood still, and the two of them were like mainstays in the flow of people in the scattered dynasty.
"When you only want to sing about the peace of the world, I think it is necessary to pour a basin of cold water on you, so that you know that the world is still full of dangers!
It's time to innovate!
” Hu Guang exhaled heavily: "These officials you said know it, but you have to do it slowly!"
”
