Out of Tongguan, through Henan, from Hebei north, passing Henan Li You also let people ask about the situation of the king, Fu Wang because he was deeply favored by the emperor of the world and was given a large number of fields, forty-two years in the history of the Luoyang, the field of twenty thousand hectares, salt to thousands of meters, for the small wealth of the financial and added a heavy burden.

Daming's policy towards the king can be described as amazing, in order to prevent these kings from making chaos, do not let them be officers, do not let them take troops, do not let them do business, and even the city can not be casually out, basically the group of people as pigs to raise, and Zhu Yuanzhang in the original policy, it seems that it did not seem to have such a strong fertility of these kings, in the Daming king's children have been hundreds of years, and these people also need to provide for them.The court could not afford it.

This is also to solve the problem ah, Li You sighed, every time to the end of the dynasty, after hundreds of years of accumulation, even if the beginning of the founding of the small problems will also have extremely serious consequences, and by this time there have been countless people because of these problems and the formation of huge interest groups, want to make changes will usher in their resolute counterattack; the suzeal problem is one of them, but not the most serious one.

Along the way, Li You looked at the late years of the dynasty, the chambers, gentry, officials, merchants, etc. to exploit the people, the court tax, envy, rent, official exploitation, usury... They use all kinds of means to take away the last grain in the mouth of the people, such a situation even if there is no Dongqing, I am afraid that Ming will not last long.

Do the gentlemen not see these things clearly?They are not fools, of course, they can see clearly, but they are still undignified, because in their opinion, even if the turmoil in the world is up to overthrow Zhu Ming's rule and establish a new dynasty, the emperor of the new dynasty will still rely on these gentlemen to rule the world, and will not touch their fundamental interests, and perhaps they can take this opportunity to take advantage of the fire and make their family's strength stronger.

Unfortunately, they did not seem to think that in the future, Li Zicheng and the slaves would treat them so harshly, Li Zicheng after entering Beijing, severely tortured them, and took their years of corruption and money to do a clean; and after the establishment of slaves into the customs and ran the horse circle, their land into an industry of eight flags, I do not know whether they regretted what they had done at that time.

No wonder Tiger Fang gave himself fifteen years, it is easy to solve the problem of slavery and the people, it is much more difficult to solve these problems, in a way, this is even more difficult than rebuilding the new dynasty, and Zhu Yuchai's position wants to make some changes far more difficult than Li Zicheng, 15 years is too short.

With all the feelings, Li Yu finally returned to the Beijing city of Chang, Han led the military officials to welcome dozens of miles away, to welcome Li You to win the victory and return, Han and those who moved when Li You left Beijing officials were not worried, Cao Huashun and Luo's temperament and other people are happy, since his majesty returned to Beijing, then his hard work can be rewarded.

“Long live the Emperor.”After boasting about Li You's martial arts, Han Jia led the group of courtiers to worship the mountain and ushered Li You into the Beijing Imperial Palace.

In the Qianqing Palace, the courtiers spoke of their plans for the celebration after the victory, "Your Majesty, this is my first victory in the past hundred years, and the afternoon door has been captive and the temple of Cheng Jie Tai, so as to promote my great Ming Wuwei."But when it comes to these issues, Han and others have doubts, how can they not see the prisoners of slavery in the ranks of Beijing?Did your majesty kill them all?This has been a bad thing since ancient times, and your majesty should not do such a thing?

"It is not necessary to offer prisoners at noon, for these prisoners are still engaged in hard labor in Shaanxi."These slaves captive are young and strong men, so it is too wasteful to kill, and now the famine in Shaanxi is partly due to natural disasters, and a large part of the natural disasters is due to water disrepair, so Li You left these people in Shaanxi to repair water conservancy, so let them once to redeem their sins.

This was a matter of making the courtiers not know how to be good, saying that your majesty is harsh, that the lives of these people will be saved at last, and that your majesty will let them go to proclaim the mercy of the Ming, and that they will not be able to say.

“As for the temple, huh?”Without waiting for their reaction, Li You continued, "Now that the Liaodong Thai half-land is still in the hands of slaves, what is my face to the temple?"Of course, the real reason is that etiquette like this is to spend a lot of money, and Li You does not want to waste money on this, and it is better to use this silver in other more useful places.

"But your majesty ..." the group of people also wanted to say, but was unceremoniously interrupted by Li You, "now it has been half a year since the defeat of the slaves, I don't know if the Guanning Army has taken this opportunity to recover the land of Liaodong?"Lost more than 30,000 elite, presumably the emperor Taiji's day is not good, right?If Guan Ningjun did not take advantage of this opportunity to make a move, it would be too disappointing for Li Yu.

Sure enough, he heard this talk, the face of the pennant became pale, he trembling and trembling out of the column said, "His Majesty, the construction of slaves back to Liaodong is already winter, Liaodong is a bitter and cold place, after the winter can not march, so the Liao Liaojun is still rectified the army, intend to wait for the warm weather after the north."He is only saying this for a moment now, hoping to drag this matter over, in fact, Guan Ningjun has no intention of going north.

"Well, the Guanning Army spends millions of dollars a year, don't these officers even prepare cotton clothes for the soldiers?"Li You coldly snorted, it was difficult to take the opportunity, Liaodong was cold, but it was not believed that Li You could not march, since the establishment of slaves could live in such an environment, then Guanning Army could not go north for no reason.

"So, what is the use of the money and food spent by the court?"Let’s see if that should stop.”Li You thought that if Guanning Army still has a little enterprising heart, it will certainly not let go of this good opportunity, as long as they show a hint of courage to fight with the slaves, then he can continue to tolerate the existence of this army, but now he has been completely disappointed in the Guanning Army, it is really mud can not support the wall ah.
