Chapter 419 Xiong Tingbi was made an earl
The court was still stable during this period, but because of a news, it became chaotic again.
Your Majesty wants to investigate the land, which is not a good thing for the nobles and relatives.
Most of the fields around the capital, even the entire Shuntian Prefecture, belong to them. Of course, some of them have land deeds, and some of them are farmlands rewarded by the emperor.
These are all evidence, and there is no big problem when investigated. The only thing they are worried about is that there is too much land, and the annexed land will make the royal family unhappy.
However, I have checked it once before, and everyone paid taxes, so it is not a big deal. After all, before, Cheng Guogong stepped forward, everyone suffered a loss and took out all the land and paid taxes.
But you can rest assured that after paying the tax, Your Majesty will no longer be difficult for them. The land can be taken to the name of the name openly without having to hide it like before.
So the imperial court wanted to investigate the land, but they were not afraid. After all, they had already been registered. The only thing that made them worried was that the occupied land was just barren mountains on weekdays, so they could circle it by drawing a circle by themselves.
As for when it comes to buying at Shuntian Prefecture, some have bought it, some have not bought it, and most of them have not been bought.
After all, there is no place to want, and I just circle it myself and no one will take care of it, so I saved the money.
People with visionary thought that they were spending small money to do big things, so they bought the land directly.
But some people are different, short-sighted and reluctant to spend money. These people panicked this time. The last time they checked the cultivated land, and they all had to check this time, and even temples and temples.
As soon as the news came out, the court was in chaos, but the chaos was with the nobles and the nobles.
The civil servants were sitting firmly on Diaoyutai, and there was no land around the capital. Instead, such a thing happened, and they were more willing to watch the fun.
However, after the matter was done, some people were more active, such as the Duke of England and the Duke of Dingguo, who immediately made a statement to cooperate with the court's compensation. Anything that was not suitable for the family should be cleaned up immediately and accepted the court's punishment.
The Duke Chengguo Mansion also made a statement later.
It was even more panicked for a moment.
Originally, the nobles and relatives were grouped together to keep warm. However, since the establishment of the Staff Office, the trend of split between the two sides has become increasingly serious.
Duke Ding was excluded from the Staff Office and has been cautious recently and dared not participate in anything. If you have the opportunity to flatter His Majesty, you will never let it go.
Because Duke Ding understood that he had been rejected by His Majesty now, and it might be troublesome if he continued to do so. If this title was demoted by two levels, his family would be greatly lost and would he still be a human being?
Therefore, even if this policy is to offend some people, Ding Guogong will come forward to support it as soon as possible.
As for the Duke of England, let alone the most famous nobleman, a powerful figure in the Staff Office. It can be said that he is one of the candidates for the Staff Minister and the most powerful figure in the military.
Such a person is in power and is at the point of promotion, so he will naturally not be stingy with this little thing in his family.
In addition, there is Duke Cheng. He had cheated others once when he paid grain and taxes last time, and he was cheated by himself. However, Duke Cheng did not dare to retreat. Although he did not stand out, there was no problem keeping up.
Several dukes agreed, but even if the other nobles and relatives wanted to object, they could not help.
Although on the surface, the power of the nobles has been improved. Those who understand the truth know that since the staff office has been given, the rights of the nobles have actually been weakened.
With the personal military commander's yamen, the rights of nobles and nobles were even weakened.
Zhu Youxiao's power has been unprecedentedly strengthened, and with the support of civil servants, so this investigation has no effort at all.
On the contrary, there was something wrong with the Taoist temple and the temple.
They usually buy land to build temples; some don’t even buy land, so they just find a piece of unowned wasteland and even build it on the hillside, and fields are opened around them. As for land deeds, there is naturally no one.
With nothing, these undocumented Taoist temples and temples are naturally within the scope of the attack. These people are not easy to mess with, and they are very stubborn. However, now they are only inquiry and have not been cleared yet, and the conflicts have not intensified so much.
The palace.
After listening to Chen Hong's report, Zhu Youxiao nodded from time to time.
After a while, Zhu Youxiao opened his eyes and said, "Let the Jinyiwei go to the temples to check them. Those who have no covenant certificates will be cleared. Any temple that contains people who have no covenant certificates will be severely punished."
There is no room for negotiation on this matter, and the development plan of the new city cannot be delayed due to the obstacles of some monks and Taoists.
These people are so fat that they don’t work for production, and they still want to occupy the land and don’t give it to them?
Think beautifully.
If they are obedient and sensible, and move away quickly with some demolition compensation, this is the best. If they don’t know the truth, then don’t blame Zhu Youxiao for being polite.
In the face of money, there was no room for negotiation. I just let the Jinyiwei take action and arrest them all.
This is the Ming Dynasty, and the emperors of the Ming Dynasty do not believe in religion.
There is one who believed in religion and conquered the demons, but it was not Zhu Youxiao.
"Yes, the emperor. I will immediately pass the imperial edict on the Jinyiwei." Chen Hong said hurriedly.
Zhu Youxiao is very confident about this matter and will never have any problems. Even if there is a problem, it needs to be pushed over.
Kill, kill, kill them all!
Zhu Youxiao now has the confidence, after all, Nurhaci is dead.
Although Nurhaci's death does not mean that the matter between Liaodong and Mongolia has been completely resolved, nor does it mean that the threat is completely gone. After all, Huang Taiji is also a talented and strategic person, and he has also done a lot of things.
But one thing Zhu Youxiao believes is that they need to be quiet for a while and will not attack the Ming Dynasty in a short period of time.
If the Ming Dynasty did not attack them on their own initiative, then Huang Taiji would treat the Mongolian Lin Danhan as an opponent and directly hit them from east to west. Zhu Youxiao was happy to see such a situation.
Anyway, Lin Danhan is not a good guy. It is also a good thing for Zhu Youxiao to bite his dog and have a fur on his mouth.
What Zhu Youxiao needs is time and money. When he straightened out his internal affairs and trained his soldiers, he would love whoever he wanted. Liaodong was stable and Mongolia could not make trouble, so Zhu Youxiao took action.
So in China and in internal affairs, Zhu Youxiao can be more powerful.
Liaodong, Shenyang City.
Xiong Tingbi's face has never disappeared these days.
After a Nurhaci died, Shenyang City became much more stable, and it even secretly began to expand northward, waiting for an opportunity to recover Tieling and Qinghe.
Recently, the horse exploration has been constantly attacking, and the situation in Chenyang City is very good.
Under such circumstances, the imperial court's rewards also came. How could Xiong Tingbi be unhappy?
Li Guangrong walked in from outside. After seeing Xiong Tingbi, he laughed and said, "Master, your count's clothing has been prepared and they have sent it here. I've seen it, it's very good."
This time, Xiong Tingbi made military achievements and was directly named Earl. Although he was just a low-ranking Earl, he was also an Earl!
As for Li Guangrong, he was granted a son and a middle-class son, and he was considered a person with a title. From then on, he was able to receive not only an official salary, but also a salary for a title. Whether it was money or status, it was a great improvement.
After hearing Li Guangrong's words, Xiong Tingbi smiled and said, "Work hard, I believe you will have such a day."
Li Guangrong also smiled and said, "Then at that time, the Grand Marshal must have been granted the title of marquis and Duke. We can also benefit from the Grand Marshal."
This time, everyone in Liaodong received rewards, and they were very happy to chat.
At this time, an excited voice suddenly sounded outside: "The reward from the court is here. You are very happy, but this treat is inevitable."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure walked in from outside.
It was Liao Zhong, a thousand households of the Jinyiwei.
After seeing Liao Zhong, Xiong Tingbi and the others laughed at the same time.
Xiong Tingbi even said directly: "It's no problem to treat guests. You can choose any place. You can have good wine and good food. Everyone must have a good meal and drink."
"Then I'll wait." Liao Zhong said with a smile.
After saying this, Liao Zhong did not speak anymore, but turned to look at Li Guangrong.
That gaze made Li Guangrong a little confused.
He then suddenly reacted and quickly bowed: "If there is nothing else, then I will leave."
Liao Zhong obviously had something to tell Xiong Tingbi, but he didn't want Li Guangrong to hear it. Li Guangrong chose to leave decisively, and it would be no benefit if he continued to listen.
Xiong Tingbi naturally understood, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go back."
Li Guangrong turned around and walked out.
After he left, Liao Zhong looked at Xiong Tingbi and said, "Along with this reward, there is also a secret letter from His Majesty, which is for the Grand Marshal."
As he said that, Liao Zhong took out a box from his arms.
The flat box is not big, with a very delicate lock on it and a seal, which can be seen to be kept confidential at all levels.
Xiong Tingbi did not dare to neglect, so he reached out to pick up the box and then carefully checked it.
The lock had no sign of prying, and the seal had no sign of passiveness. Xiong Tingbi took out the key on his waist and opened the lock.
The secret box is not everyone has this thing, and it is usually 1 to 1.
One lock has two keys, one in the emperor and the other in the ministers, used to send messages to each other. The lock is to prevent the leak of information.
Xiong Tingbi opened the lock and took out an envelope from the box.
After checking the seal's hot paint, he confirmed that there was no problem before he took the letter apart.
