Chapter 736 The Emperor's Compromise

With a sound of rescue, the guards hiding around rushed out. The two groups of people fighting hard in the field could not imagine that there were so many people hiding around.

The old man selling oil paper umbrellas, the old woman selling tea eggs, the peddler carrying a shoulder pole, and the people watching the fun... When they straightened their chests and pulled out their weapons, they were all a group of tough masters.

Regardless of their height, without exception, they are all tough guys who are ten. Ma Gang and others also claim to be veterans, but compared with these people, it is simply not enough to see them.

As soon as someone charged, they settled the yamen runners. Two people rushed to the front and pressed them against Jiang Xuan's neck with a short knife.

"What are you going to do?" Although Jiang Xuan was afraid, he still kept a little clear. He was a court official, and even if he died, he could not weaken his majesty!

"You traitors, do you know that this is the Great Zhou world? There is a place where the kingly law is. If you dare to kill me, you will surely destroy you and the nine tribes!" He shouted to the people around him, "Listen, go and dispatch troops, let the officers and soldiers kill all the traitors, and no one left!" After he finished shouting, he said to the people around him: "Did you see that? Why don't you release me quickly? Otherwise, you will burn your jade and stones, and no one will live!"

The two guards holding him hostage were just laughing, but they were burned with jade and stones. You should hit the stone with eggs!

They remained silent, and several guards ran to Guo Zongxun and reached out to support him.

"Your Highness, get up quickly!"

"No!"

Guo Zongxun was still excited, so he lay on the ground, "I was injured. I was injured by the traitor. This matter is not over!"

Guo Zongxun has always given people the impression that he is good baby, diligent and motivated, and has never shown such a lazy side, so the guards have no choice.

"Your Highness, you, you should get up and ask the imperial physician to take a look!"

Guo Zongxun grinned, "You have to see the injury, but before you see the injury, you must bring the traitor over here and ask him to sign and seal it!"

"Pull it out? What?" The guard didn't understand yet. Guo Zongxun was so angry that he kicked him with his feet. "Stupid, of course he was making a fool of himself. He said he attacked my palace and had a bad intention! If he let him go now, what if someone said a misunderstanding? Can I be beaten for nothing?"

The guard slapped his forehead and then realized it.

They immediately ran to Jiang Xuan, each of them held his arms and pressed him in front of Guo Zongxun.

"Chief Jiang, do you know me?"

Jiang Xuan looked carefully, his legs became weak and he fell down. Guo Zongxun's face was covered in mud, and it seemed to have been rubbed a little, making him look embarrassed.

But even so, Jiang Xuan still recognized it.

"Yes, it's Your Highness! Why is Your Highness here? Hurry up, go and invite a doctor for Your Highness!"

“No need!”

Guo Zongxun said arrogantly: "You asked the yamen runners to hurt me. Now I will write a confession to me. If you don't write it, I won't get up!"

It's over!

Jiang Xuan was about to cry. How could he admit the serious crime of attacking the prince?

Not to mention a head, even if the whole family is involved, it may not be enough!

However, Guo Zongxun refused to let go, and the guards forced him. Jiang Xuan really cried, "Your Highness, this is not a pen and ink. I am not able to write it!"

"That's not simple!"

Guo Zongxun raised his finger, put it beside his mouth, and acted to bite it!

If you don’t have any pen and ink, then write a bloody book!

Jiang Xuan grinned and shook his head desperately. Can he not write? The guard held the knife and pressed it on the back of his hand. If you don’t want to write, then cut off a finger until you are willing to write!

Jiang Xuan was forced to have no choice but to tear off a piece of white cloth mid laner, bit his fingers, and wrote a blood letter to confess his guilt through his own blood.

Guo Zongxun stared at him, "Tell you that this is a confession, and you must write down the detailed reason clearly. How did you collect grain, how did the people argue with you, why did you order to beat people, what did you think in your heart, what did the people beat you up to... all of them must be written clearly! In a while, you will also ask the people to testify. They recognize your blood letter and sign and seal it later, and then they can give it to the father!"

Ye Hua and Wang Pu who were watching from a distance almost burst into laughter.

The little guy is too bad. If he writes down all the things, it will cost eight hundred words without a thousand words, or at least a bowl of blood. Even if Jiang Xuan is a little fatter, the blood will cost him half his life.

Ye Hua and Wang Pu had no sympathy at all. This was worthy of it. Just letting some blood off him. After reporting to His Majesty, he must chop his dog's head!

As a pilot project, cooperatives must always be objectively evaluated regardless of success or not.

Like Jiang Xuan, who deliberately makes trouble and forces the people to rebel, can be killed and cannot be kept!

Ye Hua and Wang Pu sat down on the side, with people guarding around him. Ye Hua took the lead in speaking, "Wang Xianggong, forming a cooperative in the countryside will indeed change some power structures and increase the difficulty of implementing government orders for the court... But when the people unite, they can not only resist risks, but also fight against corrupt officials. At least they dare not bully the people easily. In my opinion, the benefits of cooperatives are far greater than their disadvantages. Do you agree with Wang Xianggong?"

Wang Pu took a deep breath, "The so-called high sky and the emperor is far away. If the places are full of cooperatives, I am also worried that some powerful figures will take the opportunity to control the cooperative, and in turn, bully the people, and confront the court, and dominate the cooperatives. At that time, it will be bad."

"Mr. Wang is a mirror." Ye Hua said frankly: "The cooperative is definitely not a one-time and all-out method, and there will be many disadvantages... The court can promote it in batches and correct the disadvantages in time. I think that the barrier is what Your Highness said. Only by popularizing education and opening up the atmosphere can it be overcome even if there are some disadvantages. If you let the place be loose and you cannot concentrate your strength, you will have no way to talk about anything."

"Um!"

Wang Pu pondered for a long time and nodded vigorously, which was considered to be acknowledging Ye Hua's proposal.

Wang Pu is a standard scholar! It is not the kind that deceives the world and steals reputation, but the kind that Mencius said. He is Chai Rong's absolute confidant, but in Wang Pu's heart, the country and the people will always rank first. As for the emperor who knows the grace of his gratitude, he can only rank second.

It is this conscience that makes Ye Hua attach great importance to Wang Pu.

Only by persuading Wang Xianggong and Wang Pu came out and said justice, Chai Rong felt that it was imperative!

They were chatting without a word... Guo Zongxun rushed over the earth on his body, took a confession full of blood words, and walked over.

"Grandpa Wang, Master, do you want to jointly sign and give it to your father?"

Wang Pu smiled silently, "Your Highness, what is Jiang Xuan? It's enough to have your Highness's confession! If we sign, it will increase his value!"

Ye Hua also smiled and said, "Don't worry, your highness, the saint shines thousands of miles. If you can't hide this from the saint, your highness will make the decision by himself!"

Guo Zongxun grinned and smiled brightly.

This is the second time he has gained power as he has grown up.

The first time was to cheat Lu Duosun, and the second time was to hurt Jiang Xuan... Although they were all harmful to others, the young man did not feel guilty at all, but instead felt that the anger in his chest was vomiting out!

"Master, now all Hebei, except Yecheng, have suffered severe locust plagues, and the people's livelihood is in difficulty and urgently need relief. I think the cooperative should be quickly implemented so that everyone can resist the locust plague together!"

Guo Zongxunman thought the teacher would agree immediately, but Ye Hua shook his head.

"Your Highness, you promoted the cooperative half a year ago. At that time, the people voluntarily joined, and every villager invested in a mu of land and labor, which was fair and reasonable. Now, some people were seriously affected, some had surplus grain, some left their hometowns, and some were still waiting in their homes. There were also some unowned fields, and they rashly promoted the cooperative. How to calculate the shares? Will anyone take the opportunity to merge and enrich their private pockets? Have you ever thought about it?"

Ye Hua's words made Guo Zongxun sweat coldly on his forehead. It was really not good. He was so proud that he could not do anything so big that he could not practice it without thinking carefully. It seemed that his Taoism was still too shallow, far inferior to his master!

So what should I do?

First, we must appease the people and let them go back to their hometowns, and then conduct a thorough investigation of the population and land to find out the basic situation. Then we send officials to the countryside to explain the benefits of cooperatives to everyone, and at the same time, we must also explain the principles of establishing cooperatives.

Try to let the people join the society voluntarily, and Ye Hua put forward a very critical requirement, that is, all cooperatives must disclose their accounts, collect how much grain, how much labor they have used, how much things they have done, how much surplus or whether they have a debt... They must be made public and subject to inspection by all members.

The court also had to conduct random inspections from time to time, and arranged manual visits and inquiries to prevent illegitimate fraud.

Ye Hua didn't believe there was any way to completely eliminate greed... Big officials were greedy, small officials were greedy, and big greedy. As long as you put money in front of you, few people could control your hands and claws.

Even if it is just a cooperative, it will involve the issue of distribution.

Ye Hua felt that local officials should be given the power to supervise, and the cooperative should not be allowed to act freely. At the same time, censors also need to focus on local governments and cooperatives. Only when everyone is dedicated to their duties can they operate efficiently and reasonably.

From Ye Hua's original intention, he didn't want to divide the power of anyone, nor did he have the intention to compete with Chai Rong. He just hoped that the Great Zhou could develop in a healthy direction, that's all.

In the chaotic times of the Qin Dynasty, a great Han Dynasty rose. After the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the prosperous Tang Dynasty established the East. As the Great Zhou Dynasty, which ended the "Four Generations and Ten Kingdoms", it should reach an unprecedented height, rather than being cowardly and losing all its face like the Song Dynasty.

"Okay, I'm worthy of being my son, I've improved my abilities!"

In front of Chai Rong was a blood letter sent by the prince, and a joint memorial from Ye Hua and Wang Pu, which was the suggestion to promote the cooperative.

Chai Rong watched while listening to the description of the embroidered envoy. When he heard Guo Zongxun forcing Jiang Xuan to write a blood letter, His Majesty the Emperor smiled happily.

He is a ruthless boy!
