"Li Zong Kongyan, the clerk of the Zuoju clerk of the Huke Left, was too harsh to investigate the deficit, and he had a lot of distrust of his ministers, which violated the original intention of governing the country with trust. It also said that the court should consider that local government agencies have short-term deficits due to various emergencies, and should give them a certain amount of time to make up for the deficits, rather than asking them to investigate immediately. This is really too tight, which is not conducive to local stability."

Liu Hongxun is reading the latest comments from the censor to Zhu Youxiao.

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao said, "I just don't trust them! And if they treat me and the court is sincere, they should not be afraid of investigation! As for the harshness, let alone, I just asked them to investigate the deficits over the years and let his previous officials compensate him!"

"At this point, we must remind officials from all provinces not to take advantage of this to make a name or even borrow money from the private sector to temporarily make up for the deficit. We hope that we can get away with it. Once it is verified, we will deal with it strictly. Not only will the house be confiscated, but we will also have to behead us! It is their best choice now to report the deficit situation honestly!"

"yes!"

"Liu Pei, the right-level minister of engineering, said that the disadvantages of deficits are the disadvantages of years, but it is too harsh for previous officials to pursue compensation according to the situation they reported. Moreover, most of the deficits are caused by frauds from the superiors and those below. If only the successive chief officials are blamed, it is quite unfair, so it is believed that the court should forgive his crimes."

Liu Hongxun responded and continued to recite.

"They don't know what to do if they are cheated by the people below? Then how did he behave like this? I don't care about anything else. I only know that I have granted him the power of the land, so he will be responsible for this matter!"

Zhu Youxiao said.

"What your Majesty said."

Liu Hongxun followed and said.

Zhu Youxiao continued: "These comments made in order to investigate the deficits do not need to be read anymore. They are talking to their relatives and friends or bribers in the name of showing lenient things to local officials, and there is nothing to listen to."

After Zhu Youxiao said that, he looked at Han Zanzhou from Dongchang: "Since Wei Zhongxian's departure, Dongchang's greed is far less powerful than before. We have to work harder. I don't think that the government of the world has become so clear that there are not many corrupt officials! There is no cat in this world that doesn't steal fish!"

Han Zanzhou was quite ashamed when he heard Zhu Youxiao say this: "It's all the internal ministers who are not good at doing things well, please ask the emperor to atone for his sins!"

Zhu Youxiao said, "I know that this cannot be blamed entirely on you. Over the years, the local department staff of the East Factory in the local area will be corrupted. You have to take some skills and dare to offend people. Don't just wait for the people from the inner factory to find out and you will deal with it!"

Han Zanzhou replied, "The Inner Master remembers it!"

"Your Majesty, there are many governors and inspectors in the area. There are naturally many reasons for suggesting that the court will not exempt land tax forever. However, in my opinion, the fundamental reason is that the local government will not be able to exploit the people from now on, especially the lower-level clerks, so they all want to obstruct the court from doing this good policy. After all, it is easier to exploit merchants in the future than to exploit farmers. Because merchants are too strict, they can leave, and farmers can only endure them because they cannot move the land.

Liu Hongxun continued.

Zhu Youxiao laughed after hearing this: "Their thoughts are naturally very obvious. They refute them all. Dongchang investigates all those who have submitted memorials and comments, and some of them have just advised on the deficit. If they just plead for their relatives and friends, it would be okay if they just plead for their relatives and friends. If they collect money, it would be another matter!"

"yes!"

Han Zanzhou replied.

...

"The princes continue to stay in office, and the court has also increased the edict to investigate deficiencies and strengthen the moral requirements of scholars and officials. In this way, the days ahead will be very difficult!"

Chen Wei said to his father Chen Qiyuan.

Chen Qiyuan was very disappointed after hearing this: "How could the eldest son of the emperor stay in Haining?! Something went wrong."

"It was said that it was caused by Liu Hongxun's words. He said that the princes had not been a magistrate of each county for a long time and were not enough to be experienced, so he had the result of the current results."

Chen Wei said.

"This Liu Hongxun!"

Chen Qiyuan slapped the table and gritted his teeth with hatred, "This is a huge loss."

"Not only the losses are significant, many people will also suffer from house searches."

Chen Wei replied.

"What do you say?"

Chen Qiyuan asked.

"Because the investigation of the deficit is to investigate the deficit, the previous chief officials will be held accountable after the counties have been investigated. However, as long as the current chief officials investigate the report based on the facts, they will not be responsible."

Chen Wei replied.

Chen Qiyuan fainted on the spot after hearing this.

"Father!"

Chen Wei couldn't help but shout.

Chen Qiyuan woke up only after being pinched.

As soon as he woke up, Chen Qiyuan said, "Go quickly, go and borrow money quickly, and you will lose money if you borrow money, otherwise your house will be searched!"

After Chen Qiyuan finished speaking, he started crying, then stamped his feet and cursed: "My surname is Liu, I will never finish it with you!"

...

"Reimbursement, how can I pay for it? When I left office, the deficit in Jiangxi had reached more than 2 million yuan, all of which cost me. How could I have so much money to pay? Isn't this my life?"

In Huguang and Huangzhou, He Jiamo couldn't help crying when he woke up, and couldn't help but scold: "Why don't you let those Beijing officials who come to the local area compensate? Let those powerful relatives and friends compensate! If I had known, I would have been Hai Rui! Woo woo!"

"Check it out immediately, how many deficits are there in our government? Let the counties report it according to the facts. Don't joke about your own black hat. Even if they don't want black hats, I still want black hats!"

The Huangzhou magistrate Gu Hongwen glanced at He Jiamo with great distress. He did not dare to neglect anymore and hurriedly passed the order to strictly investigate the deficit.

actually.

The princes and ministers in the capital were not having a good time because they were chasing the deficit.

Because many local officials were very smart, they made some accounts and other evidence when entertaining these princes and ministers.

Chen Qiyuan asked Chen Wei to borrow money, so he asked his princes and ministers to borrow money from the princes and ministers in the capital, and threatened that if he did not borrow money, the emperor would know how they wanted it, which forced these princes and ministers to take money to eliminate disasters.

"This is all good things done by the elder brother! He has found justice, but he has harmed all the princes and ministers in the world! How can he be the emperor!"

Zhu Cihui was also very depressed because he had borrowed a lot of money from the Chen family now, and blamed all the things that happened to the eldest son Zhu Ciwei.

Zhu Ciwei expected that what he did at the time would cause a series of reactions.

But he didn't regret it.

In his opinion, if he did not do that, at some point in the future, the emperor and some loyal and upright ministers in the court would find that the local government was seriously deficient and the administration was gradually becoming worse.

And then, he would disappoint his father even more.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

Because Bi Ziyan had discovered this problem, and even took him to the position of the Ming Empire's economic strategic level, strongly suggesting that Emperor Zhu Youxiao control the free development of the commodity economy.

In Bi Ziyan's view, local deficits caused by corruption in the administration and the prevalence of extravagance are all due to problems in the economic system.

Although Liu Hongxun issued a strong medicine according to Zhu Youxiao's instructions, he used the edicts to investigate deficiencies and strengthen work style construction to strictly control the administration and curb the depravity of the literati and official groups.

But now Bi Ziyan has been with Gong Yonggu, and Gu Yanwu is trying to fundamentally solve this problem.

It was just that Zhu Youxiao was not sure whether Bi Ziyan’s proposal could cure the root cause, so he asked them to test first. While asking them to test, he asked Liu Hongxun to use strong medicine to treat the symptoms first.
