Bi Ziyan 'suddenly' entered Beijing and stayed in Zhang Guowei's mansion, and the news quietly spread throughout the capital the next day. Bi Ziyan is the predecessor of the 'first assistant', and his foundation and prestige are far better than Sun Chuanting, Sun Chuanting is in the eyes of many people, and he was pushed up by the Qianqing Palace, lacking sufficient prestige.
The originally noisy capital, after a moment of quiet, suddenly became very noisy again, bigger than the sky.
There was a rumor inside and outside the capital: Sun Chuanting is about to step down, and Bi Ziyan will be the first assistant!
This rumor is really well-founded and very credible, so as soon as the capital is slightly boiling, it will rise with the wind and waves, and it will blow through the entire Ming Dynasty like a hurricane.
I don't know how many people are looking forward to the comeback of this old Bige Dongshan, even if they were against him and hated him at the beginning.
Bi Ziyan didn't know if he had heard such rumors, and the day after his whereabouts were announced, he went to the Royal Chamber.
As the dean of the previous three terms, Bi Ziyan still has a foundation in the Royal Political Yuan, and Song Yingxing is naturally a good hospitality.
In this troubled moment, the Royal Politics Academy is one of the most high-profile places, not only the previous years of the Royal Politics, but also the fresh graduates and students from universities around the world, who are pouring into officialdom in various forms, like a surging tide, like a crazy influx.
And Qin Zhengyi has already entered the provincial sequence, which has aroused the fanatical longing of countless political departments.
Bi Ziyan, Song Yingxing and some high-level officials of the Political Yuan walked on the path of the Political Yuan, saying some emotional words.
"I built this government court with the emperor's intention back then, and I never thought that more than ten years later, there would be such a scale ......"
Song Yingxing has been in the Political Yuan for many years, and he is the most empathetic, and said with a smile, "The boss is too busy, and now that he is free, why don't you live in the Political Yuan for a while and teach classes to the students?"
” Bi Ziyan did not respond to Song Yingxing's vague invitation, and said: "I heard that Burma, Siam, and even the Mughal Empire in the north of Ceylon, and the Xiyi countries have sent young people to study in the hospital?
” Song Yingxing smiled and said: "There are students from all over the world in the Political Academy, the total number is about two hundred, we treat them equally and encourage them to learn." ” Bi Ziyan nodded approvingly, and said, "In the early years, I chatted with Your Majesty in the palace, and discussed where the prosperity of a country is manifested, and Your Majesty said three.
The first is the economy, which encompasses a wide range of things, such as agriculture, commerce, the prosperity and decline of handicrafts, and so on.
Second, it is military strength, that is, the combat effectiveness of the army.
The third is culture.
I am China, Chinese culture has prospered since ancient times, incomparable, after thousands of years, profound heritage, prosperity and decay.
'Cultural reform' is also the most important part of the 'Jingzheng New Deal', and the Political Yuan is one of the representatives, so you must strive to develop and grow in the world, and you must not be complacent......"
Song Yingxing and the others listened to Bi Ziyan say this, and they were naturally excited, and they didn't dare to be humble again and again.
Bi Ziyan paced his steps, and many students came and went, watching and discussing.
Bi Ziyan was unconscious, and after talking for a while, the foreshadowing was almost the same, so he turned to the topic and said: "Now the imperial court is in urgent need of employing people, and the political court is one of the important talent export places.
I talked with Sun Shoufu for a long time yesterday and came to a conclusion, that is, primary and secondary schools in various localities should expand their scale, and high schools and universities should relax restrictions and expand their enrollment.
We must compare the talents of the world in the same framework and select the best in order to live up to the expectations of Your Majesty and hundreds of millions of people......"
Song Yingxing and the others listened, and naturally nodded yes, but they seemed quite restrained and didn't dare to say more.
It is rumored outside that Sun Chuanting will step down and Bi Ziyan will recover, so does Bi Ziyan want to come back?
He abruptly entered Beijing at this time, is he already ready to make a comeback?
Bi Ziyan didn't seem to notice the strangeness of these people, stood in front of the huge library, and said: "I entered Beijing this time to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, and I will return to my hometown in a short time. ” Song Yingxing and the others were shocked when they heard Bi Ziyan's words.
Bi Ge Lao, this does not mean to come back?
Bi Ziyan walked around the Imperial Mansion, had a meal, and then returned to Zhang Guowei's mansion.
Bi Ziyan's words spread out before he left the Royal Chamber, and I don't know how many people were very disappointed about it, and many people lined up in Zhang's Mansion, ready to persuade Bi Ziyan.
Their reason is very simple, now only Bi Ziyan can clean up this mess, and if Sun Chuanting continues like this, the world will be in chaos!
Zhang Guowei blocked the drive, and Bi Ziyan didn't see anyone.
In the evening, half an hour before getting off work, Bi Ziyan suddenly appeared in the Ministry of Rites.
Lu Daqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was very surprised, and hurriedly invited Bi Ziyan in.
Compared with the current court situation, Lu Daqi is a junior, and he has just taken over as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites not long ago, so he naturally respects Bi Ziyan very much.
Lu Daqi accompanied Bi Ziyan and walked in the Ministry of Rites, constantly introducing the innovation and changes of the Ministry of Rites.
After walking for a while, Bi Ziyan looked at the unusually empty and deserted Yamen of the Ministry of Rites, and said with a smile, "You didn't deliberately hide anything, you didn't want me to see it, right?"
” Lu Daqi hurriedly raised his hand and said, "How dare the lower officials fool the boss, as long as you want to go, I will take you there, and I promise that there is nothing to hide." ” Bi Ziyan nodded slightly, walked into the corridor on the right, and said, "I heard that you are compiling "Chongzhen Record"?
” At the beginning of Zhu Xu's succession, the era name chosen by the Hanlin Academy was 'Chongzhen', and after the formal reform was opened, Zhu Xu changed to the current era name 'Jingzheng', each with a profound meaning.
Lu Daqi's expression was slightly solemn, and he said, "Yes."
Now that the reform is in full swing, it is necessary to record and summarize some things, and give an explanation to the present and future generations, so as not to be buried in the long run. ” Bi Ziyan held a hand behind his back, slowly looked ahead, and said: "This is the truth, not only to record some things, so that future generations can understand what we have experienced, but also to clarify some things, not to be vague, let future generations poke our backbone."
For example, the term of office of the first assistant, the cabinet minister, and the six books is eight years, the first assistant who resigns from the official position, the cabinet minister cannot be reinstated, the term of office of an official in a department cannot exceed ten years, the term of office of the local governor is also two terms of eight years, and the term of office of the governor yamen does not exceed 15 years, you must clearly write ......"
Lu Daqi looked shocked when he heard this, what did this old man mean was that he clearly said that he would not come back?
The people in the Ministry of Rites looked at each other, and their expressions were a little complicated.

Many of them also hope that this Bi Ge Lao will return to the furnace, after all, this person is steady, he will not be so 'out of line', and their pressure will not be so great.
Bi Ziyan took a few steps and said: "For some etiquette laws, you must sort out clearly, and for a series of things under the 'new etiquette law', you must also have a final decision.
Who are the ministers, the unscrupulous ministers, and the traitors?
Who are the loyal ministers, capable ministers, and direct ministers?
Who is the grass on the wall that builds two walls and sways in the wind?
Who stands up to the occasion of the big event, rises to the challenge, and turns the tide?
Who is afraid of hardship, swaying, and wise to protect themselves?
Who is muddy, idle, misleading the country and the people?
It should be clear and clear, and it cannot be ...... in the spring and autumn penmanship."
Lu Daqi's heart jumped, and his expression was awe-inspiring.
At this time, is it too early to evaluate the officials in the Chongzhen period and settle the case?
If these people are to be investigated now, how will the current officialdom be shaken?
What will they think, after all, the Chongzhen period is less than eight years from now, and most of the officials inside and outside the court came from that time, if it is not good, how can they deal with themselves?
A record is meant to be passed on for thousands of years, which is equivalent to a history book, will everyone in officialdom be in danger and panic?
Lu Daqi was also sober in an instant, and Bi Ziyan wanted to warn the chaos of the current officialdom and deter those who were unpredictable.
Bi Ziyan stopped and walked in the Ministry of Rites, and stayed for half an hour before leaving.
The boiling atmosphere in the capital has been poured with cold water, and Bi Ziyan will not come back, so that too many people's eager thoughts have evaporated.
Another day, Bi Ziyan appeared on the second floor of the cabinet building and gave a speech to members of parliament and many officials in Beijing.
Bi Ziyan's speech did not quote scriptures and make long speeches, but analyzed the current situation in a flat tone, called on all people in the Ming Dynasty to unite, support the cabinet, support the first assistant, and affirmed the importance of cabinet stability and the terrible consequences of cabinet instability.
This speech completely expounded Bi Ziyan's thoughts and expressed his affirmation and support for Sun Chuanting and the existing imperial court.
The news spread quickly, and everyone inside and outside the capital understood that Bi Ziyan was not here to resurrect, but to fight the fire!
Some people are unwilling and try their best to be strict with themselves, some people are helpless to give up, and some people are silently waiting for changes.
Another day, Bi Ziyan published a signed article in the court newspaper, detailing the imperial court's 'land purchase order'.
However, Bi Ziyan's focus is different, he does not emphasize outright acquisitions, but focuses on one of the ways to buy land, that is, the 'lease-to-lease model'.
The imperial court set up a national land management agency to rent the land of these gentry, the land rights belonged to the gentry, and the right to use belonged to the imperial court for a period of five years, renewed every five years, and the rent was paid on a semi-annual basis, and after twenty years, the land belonged to the imperial court, and the imperial court would pay a purchase fee.
In the eyes of many people, this model is no different from forced purchase, but it can also be regarded as a concession by the imperial court, which eases the situation of fierce confrontation between the imperial court and the gentry.
However, the root cause is that the imperial court has no money.
Even with the support of the Royal Bank, the treasury would not be able to support the full acquisition of all the land unless the Royal Bank turned on the printing press.
In this case, neither the imperial court nor Zhu Xu will allow it.
Bi Ziyan continued to speak out, which eased the contradiction to a certain extent, reduced Sun Chuanting's pressure, and bought him a lot of time.
Bi Ziyan stayed in the capital for seven days, and the last stop was the Generalissimo's Mansion, drinking tea and chatting with Sun Chengzong, Qin Liangyu, and Cao Wenzhao, accompanied by Zhang Guowei, the secretary of the Ministry of War.
Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong are old partners, old partners, the two reunited after a long absence, playing chess and drinking tea, it is naturally a good comfort.
Sun Chengzong fell and now can only barely walk on crutches, sitting in a chair most of the time.
He played against Bi Ziyan, talked for a long time, and slowly turned to the topic.
Bi Ziyan glanced at Qin Liangyu and Cao Wenzhao, smiled and said to Sun Chengzong, "The Shuai Mansion is also a successor, how about it, when will you leave?"
” None of them are outsiders here, so they don't shy away from it.
Sun Chengzong patted his leg and said, "I want to leave, but Your Majesty is unwilling to let me go."
However, I have almost not come to Shuaifu in the past six months, and I have been cultivating in the mansion, which is no different from Zhishi. ” Bi Ziyan took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Still stable?"
” As soon as Bi Ziyan's voice fell, Zhang Guowei, Qin Liangyu, and Cao Wenzhao's expressions all moved slightly, and the pavilion was instantly quiet.
Although the mutiny of the garrison force was not as serious as the mutiny of the regular troops, it also made the Ming people extremely vigilant, and they were very uneasy in the current situation.
If there is a mutiny in the army, even if it is a very small number of people, it is a sign that the situation is already extremely serious!
Of course, the current situation is already very serious, which makes Daming very frightened.
Zhu Xu, who was in the summer resort of Chengde, did not have any attitude, and was quiet as usual, which made the marshal's mansion more cautious, and all kinds of actions were fast, checking the army and firmly controlling it, for fear of an accident.
If there is a real army mutiny, the consequences are unimaginable, and they will all be to blame!
Sun Chengzong's face was as usual, and he said: "The day before you entered Beijing, I had already used Shuai Yin to issue strict orders to various places, and they are all under control. ” The teacup in Bi Ziyan's hand was immediately clear.

Sun Chengzong could not pass the order to all parts of the Ming Dynasty in three or two days, Sun Chengzong said that the time of entering Beijing was the real time of Bi Ziyan's entry into Beijing.
It's easy to hide from others, but it's naturally impossible to hide from Sun Chengzong, who is in charge of the Military Intelligence Bureau, even if you don't know it beforehand, there will be feedback afterwards.
Bi Ziyan put down the teacup, turned his head to look at Cao Wenzhao, and said, "Vice Marshal Cao, the Royal Legion has been idle for a long time, do you want to move?"
” Cao Wenzhao was very low-key, and after he entered the Marshal's Mansion, he would succeed Sun Chengzong as the second Marshal of the Marshal's Mansion, and the rumors that he was in charge of the entire army of the Ming Dynasty were all over the capital.
Listening to Bi Ziyan's words, Cao Wenzhao was slightly stunned and said, "What does the boss mean?"
” According to etiquette, Bi Ziyan should not and will not interfere in the army.
Bi Ziyan said: "The Ministry of Industry has built the official road around the province, starting from Beijing, going to Tianjin, and then going south along the coast, turning to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, from Shaanxi, Shanxi and back to Beijing, a big circle, are you interested in taking a walk?"
” Sun Chengzong saw it and said, "Is it what Your Majesty means?"
” Bi Ziyan nodded and said, "The emperor's meaning, if necessary, to make a move against Siam or Burma, the scale is small and the voice is loud." ” Sun Chengzong, Qin Liangyu and others suddenly realized that this was to divert the attention of domestic reform.
Cao Wenzhao pondered for a moment and said: "Okay, I will go out of Beijing once, and the two cavalry will also be transferred back, if necessary, I will see if the elephant army in Burma can block a few cannons from me!"
” This is what Zhu Xu meant, Sun Chengzong naturally had nothing to say, pinched the chess pieces, and said, "What else to say?"
” Bi Ziyan fell, and said: "It's nothing, Sun Baigu's situation will not be good for a while in the future, you are the right assistant of the cabinet, don't always be so idle and let people gossip." ” Bi Ziyan is now unofficial and light, and his behavior and speech are calm and freehand, and he is completely free from the twilight of a few years ago.
Sun Chengzong groaned and said, "In a few days, I will go south along the canal and talk to the governors and commanders of various places." ” Bi Ziyan nodded, this is to stabilize the army, ensure that there is no emergency, and at the same time relieve the pressure on Sun Chuanting.
The imperial court was in full swing to try to alleviate the pressure of the gentry's rebound, and although the advance work of departments at all levels slowed down, it quickly recovered.
Suyanghang.
Due to Wang Zhou's domineering behavior, countless gentry were frightened, worried day and night, and could not sleep.
Fu Changzong took this opportunity to meet with fifty gentry with the most land in Suzhou Mansion, and finally made these gentry agree to 'rent' the land to the imperial court.
These fifty were solved, and the other gentry had no power to resist, and most of the land resuming operations of the three mansions of Suyanghang were completed at a speed of 'blink of an eye', which shocked the entire gentry class of the Ming Dynasty.
In the middle of July, the sun above Daming's head was no worse than in previous years, the same fierce, the land under the light seemed to be burning, and it was difficult to breathe when walking a few steps outside, and it was unbearable.
The imperial court's 'land purchase order' is still vigorously carried out, the opposition is still strong, and all kinds of incidents emerge one after another, and the local court is tired of coping.
Chengdu Prefecture, Chengdu County.
Sichuan was originally a country of abundance and has always been a rich place, but under natural disasters, it is also the most severely affected and chaotic place, second only to Shaanxi and Guizhou.
The imperial court's 'land purchase order' was also promoted here, but the situation in Sichuan was quite complicated, the local gentry were particularly stubborn, and various forces were intertwined, and without the firm and strong support of the local government, it was simply difficult to move an inch.
Yuan family.
The ancestor of the Yuan family was Tusi, and later naturalized as the Han people, with a name and surname in Sichuan, a rich family and countless fields.
The head of this generation of the Yuan family is a Jinshi in the Wanli period, an official to a member of the Wailang, Zhishi for many years, in his seventies, is a stern and domineering head of the family, named Yuan Zheng.
He had three sons, but unfortunately they all died early, leaving only one grandson.
Sun Tzu is a student at Chengdu University with two years to graduate and is a staunch supporter of the 'New Deal'.
His name is Yuansheng.
He stood in front of Yuan Zheng, looked at his grandfather sitting on the chair, and said bitterly, "Grandpa, why don't you understand?"
This is a major event of the country, and it is an unprecedented achievement for the long-term development of the country and the well-being of the people......
The imperial court is willing to pay enough silver dollars to buy land, why don't you hold on to it......
Yuan Zheng sat on the chair, holding the cane with both hands, his old face was expressionless, and he said lightly: "This is ancestral property, it is the blood and sweat of the ancestors, you want to sell it now, this is disloyalty and unfilial piety, what face do you let me have to see the ancestors underground after I die?"
” Yuan Sheng was choked and speechless, so after saying everything, Yuan Sheng said directly: "If you don't sell it now, I will definitely sell it as soon as it comes to me!"
” Yuan Zheng was immediately furious, picked up his cane and hit it, and roared angrily: "I'm not dead yet, are you going to zàofǎn!"
” Yuan Zheng hugged his head, turned around and ran.
Outside the city, a village, a woman in her thirties, looked at her second uncle who came to persuade her, holding the child, burying her head in swaddling clothes, swaying gently, and ignoring the words of the second uncle.
This second uncle, twenty-five or six, who had listened to it in college, was a very enthusiastic young man, looked at his sister-in-law, and said: "Sister-in-law, the government said that as long as the eldest brother's 200 acres of land are leased to the imperial court, you don't have to do anything, and you get thirty taels a year, where can you find such a good thing?"
Also, in the future, when my eldest nephew grows up, he will be sent to the county school, and he will not be charged a penny for tuition, and it will be a matter of time before he gets ahead......"
The woman seemed to be annoyed by the words, raised her head, and said with a blank face: "This is what your eldest brother left me, and I will leave it to my son completely in the future, you don't need to say it, I won't give it to others." ” The young man was annoyed and helpless when he heard it, and he really had a headache. …… The list goes on and on, and the imperial court's 'land purchase order' is facing a brutal resistance from reality.
But even so, it still failed to stop the imperial court's acquisition action, and for the nail households, the imperial court adopted the method of first making it easy and then difficult, and held the land that could be collected in its hands as soon as possible.
By mid-August, in the Qingtian group, the number of acres of land available for distribution had reached 60,000 mu in the account book of the field in the hands of Li Banghua, the leader of the group!
Among them, the most difficult Nanzhili, Suyanghang, Sanfu, etc., were basically completed, and the measurement team cleared in the fields all day long, busy and endless.
By the end of the year, the number in the account book in Li Banghua's hand had reached '70,000,000', and the acres of land in Daming Pass had been purchased to nearly seventy percent!
Although there are still many problems in this, the counterattack is high, which still makes the cabinet very excited.

Cabinet, Fu Changzong has returned to Beijing, sat on the chair with a teacup, and said with a smile: "Seventy thousand mu is enough, as soon as these lands are divided, those gentry and big families are afraid that there will be no tenants, so they can only farm the land with their own hands." ” Zhou Yingqiu is also very optimistic, and said: "This year's measurement team, household registration, disaster review, resettlement, procurement, etc., have been basically proficient, with some experience, next year, we can start large-scale land division." ” "That's right, let's start from Liaodong, Guannei, let them make trouble again, and see who cries first when the time comes!"
King Jing has been under a lot of pressure recently, and he rarely has a smile.
Shen Xun, who was not far away, listened to the rare relaxed and happy chat of the elders of the pavilion, and thought, "The matter of dividing the land, basically there is not much pressure.
I am worried about the future, and now there are few people in the land, and the young and strong people who farm the land may not be enough. ” The territory of the Ming Dynasty is unprecedentedly vast, and the total number of acres of land has expanded by more than 1.5 billion mu.
Sun Chuanting spoke at this time and said: "Therefore, farming tools, ploughing cattle, etc., can reduce the pressure of labor, increase the area of cultivated land, the tools of farmers' income, and livestock, should be greatly encouraged, supported, and the cabinet must sort out a set of methods, so that the peasants cannot escape under the disaster, and no one ......will plant the land after the disaster."
Zhou Yingqiu said, "I'll let the staff department do it, and then let the five departments discuss it in detail and come up with a specific method." ” Sun Chuanting nodded, looked at Fu Changzong and said, "Elder Fu Ge, you go to see Li Banghua later, and ask him to show me the plan for next year, as well as the adjustment of the three Shangshu, find a time, hold an expanded meeting, and ventilate outside." ” The Qianqing Palace has agreed to Sun Chuanting's proposal to adjust the positions of the three Shangshu departments of the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Works, and the Ministry of Officials.
Fu Changzong didn't have any opinions, and said: "Cao Dingjiao's position is not moving, Wei Xuelian and Meng Zhaoxiang are two of them, and I plan to transfer them to the household department and serve as Langzhong." ” These three people are also the leaders of the political department, although they are not as dazzling as Qin Zhengyi and advance as fast, but everyone is optimistic about their future.
Sun Chuanting glanced at Fu Changzong calmly, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay." ” As for why Cao Dingjiao didn't move, it was because Cao Wenzhao was deliberately pressing, and he once greeted the cabinet ministers.
Cao Wenzhao, the future marshal of the Generalissimo's Mansion, the right assistant of the cabinet, even Sun Chuanting has to sell a little face.
In the words of these bigwigs, the personnel changes at the end of the next year have been determined. —— The second group, welcome everyone to join the complaining author bacteria: 298231914.
