Implementing the new policy...

What new policy can be related to clearing the land and unified taxes?

After Emperor Hongzhi finished speaking, he also explained the land and population data at the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, as well as the data counted in the previous two years.

He also said that more than half of the people and land in the court are hidden, so he wants to re-invent all of these to increase the income of the Ming Dynasty treasury.

No matter how old Kong Hongxu is, he can still think.

Most of the people who can hide people and land on a large scale are officials and gentry!

The emperor asked his Kong family to fully support him, and he asked his Kong family to help him and stand against the officials and gentry in the world!

But did the emperor forget one thing?

His Kong family is one of the top officials and gentry among them!

Let the Kong family take the lead and check it out by yourself?

Is this crazy?

Kong Hongxu's mind was filled with thoughts and he did not answer immediately.

Emperor Hongzhi was not in a hurry, and the old god was waiting for him.

After a while, Kong Hongxu spoke.

"Your Majesty, the court has implemented the new policy, and we, as ministers, naturally support it."

"It's just that our Kong family has always been good at teaching and educating people, and there are not many political facts involved."

"If Your Majesty wants to discuss these, I may not be able to give too much advice."

"And now our country is in a stable state, political affairs are clear and the people are living and working in peace and contentment."

"I think it is really not appropriate to implement the new policy at this time."

Kong Hongxu is old, but his mind is not confused.

He could not refuse directly, he could only make a big move.

All the responsibilities are transferred to civil servants with real power.

Although his Kong family has a high status, he is also known as the leader of civil officials.

But his Kong family has no real power!

Kong Hongxu said that the Kong family could not take the blame.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled calmly after hearing his words.

"This is a bad thing for Confucius."

"The scholars in the world respect the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and are authentic disciples of saints."

"After Confucius, you, as saints, are of course the most powerful of speaking."

After Zhao Ce told him this secret that day, Emperor Hongzhi did not take action immediately.

He arranged the arrangement for a few days and asked someone to check a lot.

Although the Kong family did not have real power, they were the most useful thing about them as the saint.

As a ruler, using Confucianism is to better rule the world.

Confucianism has been popular for so many years, and a group of nerds have been taught.

Now, it is time to truly accept the results.

Kong Hongxu didn't know why the current emperor suddenly had to carry out such drastic reforms.

In his opinion, the emperor has always been a gentle and polite emperor today.

Any previous emperor can carry out reforms, but today's emperor will not.

But this person who is the least difficult becomes that exception.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid."

"I have now stepped down from the position of Yan Shenggong and dare not agree to this matter on behalf of the Kong family."

"And our Kong family really cannot take on such an important task."

Taking on this responsibility is equivalent to being an enemy of all the officials and gentry of the Ming Dynasty.

How dare you agree to this?

Emperor Hongzhi was still gentle and persuaded him with kind words.

"Since I want you to help, I will naturally give you the corresponding power."

The Kong family did not need any real power. Emperor Hongzhi only needed them to agree to this matter when they implemented the new policy. As a mascot supporting the court, they appeared everywhere in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the old fried dough sticks who have lived in the officialdom for a long time will not be able to be really obedient because of this.

But it’s okay if they are disobedient, as long as the people below are obedient.

The aristocratic families and officials and gentry who hold the land and population will definitely try their best to stop them.

But there are many scholars from poor families in the world.

They have no land in their hands and no population in their families.

After the implementation of the new policy, their families will pay even less taxes.

These people will definitely support this action.

Coupled with the emergence of the Kong family, most of the remarks were controlled.

So the implementation of this new policy is probably not a big problem even if there is bureaucratic resistance.

After all, the people are the real cornerstone of the country.

Most of the imperial courts are now clear-headed.

To control these so-called clear streams, as long as you control the speech, everything is possible.

Emperor Hongzhi's abacus was a joke.

But Kong Hongxu didn't dare to buy it.

He had to change his method: "I am old and my mind is not very smart."

"I really want to support Your Majesty, but I am powerless..."

Emperor Hongzhi said with a smile: "Confucius is getting stronger, how could he be powerless?"

"Even if Confucius is old, the Kong family still has so many young talents who can serve my Ming Dynasty."

"I think after Emperor Taizu pacified the world, he immediately gave him the title of Yan Sheng Gong."

"I believe that I know clearly the leadership role of the Kong family in my Ming Dynasty."

"So it is best for you, the Kong family, to come forward."

When talking about Emperor Taizu, Kong Hongxu had some idea of ​​what, but his face suddenly thrust.

He suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

He couldn't help but raise his head and looked at the emperor who was in charge.

Emperor Hongzhi, who had always been gentle, was looking at him condescendingly.

The face was facing the light, and there was still a gentle smile on his face.

But Kong Hongxu looked at the smile and thought of someone inexplicably.

That was someone who made him frightened and even had nightmares when he dreamed of it at midnight.

The man whispered in his ear: "Emperor Taizu knew that your lineage was not an authentic successor to Confucius, but he still regarded you as an authentic Confucius after the founding of the Ming Dynasty."

"What is the purpose? I want me to tell you?"

What is the purpose?

Do you want someone to tell him?

Of course not needed!

The emperors of the state had faults, but there were no faults in their Kong family!

The secret they have protected from generation to generation since the founding of the National Dynasty!

now......

Kong Hongxu's breathing suddenly began to be rapid.

I know now!

That person said he wouldn't tell others, but is it someone else now?

He is the lord of the world!

The secrets of the world should be in his hands!ωωw.

Kong Hongxu gritted his teeth, held back the trembling all over his body, and said, "Your Majesty wants me, what should I do?"

Emperor Hongzhi was still smiling and seemed to be in a good mood.

"The renovation of the Confucius Temple has been completed."

"I have issued an order to call the contemporary Yansheng Gong back to Beijing with the next Yansheng Gong."

"Confucius has been waiting in the mansion for the past few days."

"When I summon you again soon, I will entrust you with important tasks."

Kong Hongxu opened his mouth and wanted to say that the Kong family really didn't want to do it.

Emperor Hongzhi also said: "In my hearts and literati in the world, the status of the Kong family has always been irreplaceable."

"I hope Confucius can discuss with Yan Shenggong."
