After hearing this, Zhu Song nodded with satisfaction.

"Come here, I will order that if you meet the soldier just now on the battlefield in the future, don't kill him. After arresting him, give him ten taels of silver. Let him leave and tell him not to be a soldier after returning to his hometown.

.”

Zhu Neng was stunned after hearing this: "Your Highness, why is this? This wolfish ambition is not a loyal and righteous person, but a person who sells his master and seeks honor. Such a person's kindness to his wife is cruel to himself.

!”

Zhu Song smiled and said, "It's just a soldier, it's not that exaggerating. Just do what I said!"

Zhu Neng bowed and said, "Please rest assured by your highness!"

Zhu Song returned to the camp and sat down to see the remaining half pot of wine poured out and drank it all.

Although he had already made preparations, Zhu Song was still touched by the words of the soldier today. Not to mention anything else, he only said that after King Yan Zhu Di became the emperor, he would definitely reduce the vassal states, but at least he would not have

Life is dangerous, but at the same time, I will never go back to Kaiyuan in this life, and I will never think about growing the military power of a vassal state in this life.

In his previous life, Zhu Song was a miserable office worker, and he really had enough class work.

In this life, Zhu Song was lucky enough to be the prince of the emperor. He was already very content, at least he didn't have to work hard all day for his stomach.

The reason why Zhu Song chose to help Zhu Zhu Di was very simple. Zhu Di became the emperor and created a very good Yongle era for the Ming Dynasty.

Although Zheng He's fundamental purpose of voyage to the West was to find the traces of Jianwen, it is undeniable that Zheng He's voyage to the West had a very good and close connection with all countries, and to a certain extent made great contributions to national trade.

, which made the Ming Dynasty powerful and powerful, and all nations came to pay tribute.

Zhu Di moved the capital to Peiping, which was particularly active in the Ming Dynasty's combat response to the nomadic peoples in the north, especially on the grasslands. For a long time, the capital moved to Peiping and took the initiative in the battle with the nomadic peoples.

Advance can attack, retreat can defend.

In military affairs, Zhu Di made great contributions. The Yuan people who fought against the north of the desert five times ran away with their heads. During the decades of his rule, the people on the border were rarely plundered by nomadic people.

He was the last emperor to enfeoff the wolf and the only emperor in Chinese history, and he made great contributions.

If it was not Zhu Di who was on the throne who had always been in power, with Jianwen's emphasis on culture and over military power, the Ming Dynasty would likely face the problems it would face in the early stage, that is, the officials who control the government can control the government, and the emperor can be defeated by the emperor.

He controlled the Chaozheng and became a civil servant, especially a political faction led by a literati and officials of the Donglin Party and other factions, and dominated the Chaozhou system.

Therefore, even after the Jingnan Success, Zhu Song would lose his military power, and might even no longer own the three guards. However, Zhu Song was still the prince of the court and could still enjoy a salary of 10,000 sep every year.

After saying that, Zhu Song was in trouble, but now he was in a tangle.

There were more than a few dozen princes in the late Ming Dynasty, and they were only hundreds of thousands. Each vassal king had to have a salary of 10,000 s were paid per year. If this continues, I am afraid that the salary of the entire vassal king of Daming Guang could be hollowed out.

The eldest son of the King of the French inherited the title of Prince, and the prince's concubine's concubine automatically became the prince. The eldest son of the prince inherited the title of Prince. The prince's sons were awarded the title of Prince General, the grandson of the prince was awarded the title of General Fengguo, and the fourth generation

Lieutenant of Sun Zhenguo, Lieutenant of the Fifth Generation of the State of Fuguo. Lieutenant of the Sixth Generation of the State of Fengguo are all lieutenant of the State of Fengguo.

The lowest salary of the Fengguo Lieutenant was 200 shi per year. The salary of officials in the Ming Dynasty was unprecedented in history. From the fourth-rank officials, they still had a salary of 240 shi, but they reached the fifth-rank officials.

There are only one hundred and eighty stones a year.

In this way, the lives of the Ming officials were quite difficult, and even if the royal relatives did nothing, they would still have a salary of 200 s. Not to mention that those officials felt unfair, even Zhu Song was the one who said that

The first-class prince also feels very, very unfair.

But why didn’t there be any money in the late Ming Dynasty? In fact, the fundamental reason did not exist in the vassal kings. The fundamental reason was that the court could not collect taxes, so why couldn’t collect taxes? Because the taxes of the court pointed to ordinary people.

The rest of the rest, whether it is officials or handicraftsmen, are not familiar with the tax court, but the people who have made a fortune will have a problem in supporting themselves.

What should the people do if they lose their land? When they lose their land, they can only sell the land. To whom? Of course, they are sold to landlords who are higher than the peasants, or royal relatives, and the vassal kings are undoubtedly

The biggest profiter of land annexation is also the largest landlord under land annexation.

Zhu Song could understand that Zhu Yuanzhang decided to divide the feudal system of vassal kings and was nothing more than living a poor life and living a hard life. He thought that his descendants could not worry about food for generations, but in this way

Haven’t officials, soldiers, vassal kings, royal relatives, and national heroes all become borers of the Ming Dynasty?

Zhu Song felt a headache for a moment and was thinking too much. They didn't have to pay taxes for these upper classes, so they were naturally unwilling to change, and naturally unwilling to break the rules and pay taxes honestly. More importantly, officials

Their salary is already low, so if they are asked to pay taxes, this year, let alone life, even maintaining food and clothing will become a problem.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a peasant uprising and always had a narrow vision. He believed that ordinary people could spend ten taels of silver for a year, so why couldn't officials live for ten taels of silver for a year?

But after all, officials always have to keep some servants at home. They can’t let officials clean up their own home while busy with the government affairs of the court?

Not to mention that officials and officials have human relations. If you give a gift, it would be even more difficult. Therefore, even if Zhu Yuanzhang hated corrupt officials so much, the punishment for corrupt officials by the Ming Dynasty was not bad. But why did the corruption in the Ming Dynasty end up being impurified.

It still has not been weakened at all. The fundamental reason is that officials have no money and can do what if they are not greedy?

In Zhu Song's view, if we want to completely solve the phenomenon that even the tax bank could not be mentioned in the late Ming Dynasty, we can only change the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Whether it is scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, as long as the people of the Ming Dynasty, they must pay taxes.

Moreover, the salaries of officials in the Ming Dynasty must be longer.

The people are the foundation of the country, and officials are the guarantee of the operation of the country. It is just an oppressor of an official, and it is impossible to rely on integrity. If you want officials to stop embezzlement, you must raise their salary and support the integrity with high salaries.
