"Whether Chen Xuance succeeds or not, it won't be a big deal for us."
Recently, the Tiandu Kingdom has been invading the Wei Kingdom.
There are various conflicts between the two sides.
If the situation continues like this, a war might break out, so even if it continues to deteriorate, it’s actually no big deal.
That is why Song Gongwen said that whether Chen Xuance succeeds or not will have no impact.
Especially if it succeeds, it will definitely be a great thing for the Great Wei.
Zhang Zhengming was also aware of this and nodded immediately, saying, "That's right, but this young man, Chen Xuance, is too arrogant. He actually wants to directly overthrow the Tiandu Kingdom's regime."
"But you have to admit, teacher, that young people's vigor is not a bad thing."
"Chen Xuance has such an idea and is loyal to his country."
"Maybe he can really do something we can't expect?"
Song Gongwen also laughed, but his expression became a little serious as he murmured, "The country sometimes needs such spirited young people."
Zhang Zhengming, who was standing nearby, didn't say much after hearing this. But he also thought of someone: Song Hongzhi, the son of Song Gongwen, the Marquis of Guanjun, who had destroyed a kingdom in one battle.
If I didn't have this youthful vigor, I wouldn't be able to do this.
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and then said, "What about Ouyang Ji? The Northwest is a barren land. Although he is talented, there are some things that cannot be solved by talent alone."
From Song Gongwen, I heard that this runner-up seemed to have always wanted to go to the northwest.
Improve the lives of the people there.
The original intention is good.
But the problem is that this is also an extremely difficult thing to do.
Even if Zhang Zhengming went there in person, he might not be able to do the best.
"He's still young, so it would be good for him to go to the northwest to gain some experience." Song Gongwen thought for a moment, then said, "Besides, I've already asked Ouyang Ji to take the potato seeds that Brother Ying Xing brought."
"I heard from Brother Ying Xing that this thing can grow well even in barren lands and is very easy to plant."
"If it's just as he said, then Ouyang Ji can at least improve the situation of some people in the northwest who don't have enough food to eat."
The seeds brought by Ying Xing?
Zhang Zhengming was stunned at first when he heard this, but he soon felt relieved.
During this time, he has been paying attention to what his nephew has been doing.
What surprised Zhang Zhengming was that the other party had made extremely advanced preparations in the construction of the canal and the Weizhi Road.
Especially his understanding of mountains, rivers and the design of some drawings, which were constantly updated, amazed some officials from the Ministry of Works.
When he first learned about it, he was a little bit skeptical, but when he heard what the Minister of Works said in person, he was shocked.
Only then did he truly confirm that his nephew, although not very good at studying.
But in this regard, he is very talented.
so.
Zhang Zhengming was completely relieved.
And now, Ouyang Ji took those seeds away.
Although he didn't know whether the so-called potatoes were what his nephew said, he thought it must be close to the truth.
I wonder if it can be promoted nationwide at that time?
Of course, this is a later story.
Now Zhang Zhengming also agreed with what Song Gongwen said. No matter what, it is not a bad thing for Ouyang Ji to go to the northwest to gain some experience.
Afterwards, the two continued to discuss the matter of the gentry going to the capital.
In their eyes, this is related to His Majesty's grand plan.
So do your best no matter what.
Song Gongwen also planned to wait a few days, until the gentry really became furious, before taking action.
At that time, we will take the list directly to Jingzhao Prefecture to mobilize people and control all the nobles who are colluding with the Baiyi Sect.
Colluding with the Baiyi Sect is a serious crime, and with the cabinet's deputy minister stepping in, Jingzhao Prefecture naturally dared not be negligent.
As for Zhang Zhengming, he would not choose to be idle and decided to do so in the next few days.
Continue to submit memorials to support the cessation of the equalization of land tax and land tax.
There are two purposes.
First of all, use this opportunity to continue to build prestige for Your Majesty.
Secondly, it is to paralyze the gentry and officials, making them feel that this is the trend of the times, and then they will jump for joy.
It will also allow Your Majesty to be more thorough when rectifying the administration of officials.
at last.
The two finalized the details of the plan.
They didn't stay in the yard for long and left one after another.
And the outside world.
Because of the instigation of the gentry, more and more people opposed the reform and attacked Song Gongwen.
Even those who wanted to speak in support before stopped talking, because they found that no matter how many memorials they submitted, the emperor seemed to be motionless.
He neither chose to suppress the gentry nor continued to support Song Gongwen, and his attitude was ambiguous.
This makes some people wonder whether Your Majesty is really afraid of the gentry?
Think about the end result.
Will Your Majesty compromise?
If that is the case, then what I do is meaningless, right?
Of course, there are still some people who are insisting on submitting memorials to refute the gentry and support the equalization of land tax.
In the eyes of these people, no matter what the final result is, it doesn’t matter, as long as they have a clear conscience.
As for the nobles.
During this period of time, I also felt something strange.
It is easy to understand why His Majesty is indifferent to the reform.
It's nothing more than wanting to wait until the end, when things become unmanageable, and then come out to resolve it.
