Chapter 155: The powerful Wang Yangming, the governor of six provinces in Jiangnan!
The next day.
In the Forbidden City.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the Nine-Aperture Golden Pill in his hand.
A smile appeared on his face: "With the Nine Apertures Golden Pill of this eternal world."
"Before I awaken a thousand giant elephant particles, I should have no shortage of life essence."
“You can also push the Life Spring realm one step further, but if you want to break through the Divine Bridge realm.”
"I'm afraid it's still a little short?!"
Nine-orifice golden elixir!
This was the first help that Old Demon Fang received in the world of immortality.
This was also the reward Zhu Houzhao received for signing in last night.
Now this system really is a sign-in system for all the worlds.
The status of the Eternal World is even higher than that of the Holy King and the Heaven-shaking World.
This kind of sign-in reward also allowed Zhu Houzhao to see the future of sign-in.
Maybe in the future we’ll be able to sign in to a more exaggerated world?
Or even an innate treasure from the ancient world?
However, such rewards would probably require the sign-in level to be raised to an unparalleled level.
Or is it possible to achieve this by forcibly increasing the power level by two levels during the annual contract? !
.....
Zhu Houzhao slowly swallowed the Nine-Aperture Golden Pill.
This Nine-Aperture Golden Pill is not meant to be swallowed or taken orally.
Instead, replace it with your own heart.
Every beat of the heart can temper the body.
If an ordinary person uses it, he may become a great master of astronomy!
Just for Zhu Houzhao.
With the essence of his life, there is no need for that kind of trouble.
It is enough to absorb all the medicinal power contained in the Nine Aperture Golden Pill.
As for the Grand Master of Astronomy.
The blood bodhi is promoted by itself.
It would be a waste to give this Nine-Aperture Golden Pill to his subordinates.
.....
"His Majesty."
"Wang Yangming, Yang Heting, and Li Dongyang request an audience."
Cao Zhengchun's voice was heard outside the hall.
After yesterday’s retreat.
Cao Zhengchun has officially entered the level of Grand Master of Astronomy.
Finally, the combat capability was raised to the level of the first echelon under Zhu Houzhao.
Under the Tiangang Boy's Kung Fu, Cao Zhengchun's aura also appeared extremely domineering.
"Xuan!"
Zhu Houzhao chuckled.
soon.
Wang Yangming, Yang Heting and Li Dongyang, three important officials of the Ming Dynasty, walked into the Baohe Hall.
Yang Heting was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, this is the revised list."
Cao Zhengchun took the list and handed it to Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao glanced at it and threw it aside.
He said calmly, "Just follow the list."
"Let the Western Factory Supervisor Han Shengxuan cooperate."
Several important officials of the fourth rank appeared on the list this time.
There is even a Shangshu of the third rank!
Obviously, Yang Heting and others also went through a fierce calculation.
Finally, it was decided to abandon this third-rank minister.
Zhu Houzhao was too lazy to delve into this matter.
All he wants is an attitude and an ending.
In the current situation.
The Ming Dynasty court could no longer be an obstacle.
No matter whether he is a senior official or an ordinary official.
They were intimidated by the Western Factory's notoriety and the supremacy of imperial power.
You can only do things with trepidation.
Rebellion?!
Forced into the palace? !
This kind of thing is common in past history.
But it is absolutely impossible to happen in the Ming Dynasty today!
Seeing this, Yang Heting also breathed a sigh of relief.
The interests involved in this list are related to personal connections.
But his hair has turned a lot whiter in the past two days.
In order to satisfy His Majesty, we must also maintain the stability of the court.
Li Dongyang remained silent on the side.
His eyes turned to Wang Yangming.
Compared to the list of people who are destined to be sacrificed.
Wang Yangming's reforms were truly earth-shaking.
It is also something that is truly enough to shock the Ming Dynasty.
.....
Wang Yangming respectfully handed a memorial to Zhu Houzhao.
He said in a deep voice: "This is my strategy for reform!"
In fact, it was as early as after he attained enlightenment in Longchang.
Wang Yangming had his own views on officialdom.
He even wanted to carry out some reforms.
However, before this, Wang Yangming did not hold enough official position or power.
It was also impossible for him to express his ideas about reform.
And after listening to Your Majesty's description of Zhang Juzheng's reforms yesterday.
Wang Yangming integrated a series of reform measures overnight based on this reform.
...
Zhu Houzhao calmly opened the memorial and began to read it.
Just a quick scan.
He then saw Wang Yangming's intention.
Zhang Juzheng's reforms were more intended to increase Ming Dynasty's taxation.
Although measures such as land surveying were also taken.
But as far as reform is concerned.
It's actually a little milder.
This is certainly because the Ming Dynasty could not withstand the shock.
What’s more, Zhang Juzheng had great power in the court.
But in the end, it is difficult to compete with the entire bureaucratic group!
He had to make some concessions for it.
Wang Yangming is different.
He has the support of Zhu Houzhao.
It also has the Zhenwu Division and Xichang as its backing.
Naturally, he acts more domineeringly.
Based on Zhang Juzheng's reforms, Wang Yangming's reforms were even more radical!
He had no intention of making those powerful people cooperate obediently.
But in an almost predatory manner.
The entire Ming Dynasty’s financial system was instantly elevated.
Land survey?!
Land grabbing is it!
If anyone is dissatisfied, Yu Huatian from the Western Factory will handle it!
.....
Zhu Houzhao chuckled and said, "Let's follow this reform strategy."
“But we need to add measures to improve the status of merchants.”
"If I open the sea in the future, I will also need the help of these merchants."
"As for the performance evaluation method."
“No need to be so strict.”
Zhang Juzheng's performance evaluation system had already made the officials of the Ming Dynasty work more diligently.
The performance evaluation system revised by Wang Yangming was even more stringent.
These officials were even treated like beasts of burden.
Such a strict system doesn't make much sense.
Wang Yangming nodded seriously and said, "I will delete a few points from the evaluation method in a moment."
"The treatment of merchants will also be decided after consultation with the cabinet."
Zhu Houzhao said calmly: "All matters concerning the reform will be handled by you."
"As for authority?"
He frowned slightly.
Wang Yangming had just jumped from a county magistrate to the Minister of War in Nanjing.
Although he had the credit for rectifying the six ministries in Nanjing.
But if he were to make another leap, he would only be one of the six ministers of the Forbidden City.
Or a senior cabinet minister.
Zhu Houzhao had no intention of transferring Wang Yangming to the Forbidden City for the time being.
But if you want to preside over the reform.
Considering Wang Yangming's current power and official position, it is a bit low.
Zhu Houzhao pondered for a moment.
He then said, "Appoint Wang Yangming as the governor-general of the six provinces of Liangjiang, Fujian and Zhejiang, and Guangdong and Guangxi."
"What is a Governor?"
"Take charge of all political, military, and economic power in the six provinces!"
There was no such position as governor in the Ming Dynasty.
What Zhu Houzhao was referring to was the governor or governor-general of the Qing Dynasty.
This official position is extremely suitable for Wang Yangming.
But the authority is also extremely exaggerated.
This can almost be said to have handed over all six southern provinces of the Ming Dynasty to Wang Yangming.
military!
Government affairs!
economy!
Everything depends on Wang Yangming's words!
