The words of the Censor Du said were equivalent to stabbing the hornet's nest directly. If it weren't for Zhu Yun's face, I was afraid that the noble and old ministers would jump straight into scolding and revenge.

Even so, several old military marquis had red eyes, rolled up their sleeves angrily, and looked at Hou Yong, Yan Zhen and others fiercely. There were even people, their mouths opened and closed, and they moved silently.

Judging from the lip shape, it must be nothing good.

"Emperor!" Hou Yong didn't even look over there, and continued to speak, "Yunnan is located in a remote place, with Han and Man living together, and next to Myanmar, there are many chieftains and barbarian kings. The imperial court allocates more money and grain to Yunnan every year than the taxes paid by a province in Central Plains!"

"Over the years, the imperial court immigrated from the Central Plains to Yunnan. The local governors have built farms and built water conservancy projects, built cities and opened mountains and roads, which is also a prosperous area. If these salt, iron, candy, cotton, etc. are taken into account as state-owned, I think the governors of Yunnan can be completely self-sufficient."

At this time, Ru Wei, the Minister of War, suddenly spoke, "Emperor, the Minister of Hou and the Censors, said very well!"

His proposal was unexpected by Zhu Yunyu, and it was completely beyond the expectations of the old ministers and nobles.

"His grandma, the scholar who suffered from plague is unreliable. He will not be as loyal as our men after becoming the Minister of War!"

"Your grandma's doggy-good Ru Wei, I will let you be the Minister of War. If you turn around, let someone wear small shoes for you!"

The old ministers cursed in their hearts, and Ru Wei continued, "Because it is the southwestern border, there are 80,000 troops in Yunnan. These 80,000 people are now relying entirely on military farms, so they can barely fill their stomachs. Moreover, this number is only for the army, and it is not counted as their families who have been with their families. The annual food and salary must be drawn from several surrounding provinces."

"A thousand kilograms of grain will be at a loss of up to 30%. It is not counted as a civilian, or the livestock they call. If the rainy season occurs, the loss will be even greater."

"In addition to food, there is also money. The military pay of 80,000 people is also transferred from the treasury every year. There is also the local expense of building bridges and roads, which requires the central government to pay for money."

"In my opinion, if these transactions such as salt and iron are collected from the General Secretary, the local finances in Yunnan will definitely be eased. If the local vassal treasury has a balance, there is no need to ask the center for money repeatedly!"

After Ru Wei finished speaking, the civil officials such as Bao Zhao, Fu Youwen, Zheng Ci, Xia Yuanji and others agreed.

What is strange is that the old minister Ling Han, the Minister of Personnel, did not express any expression at all, as if he was dozing off while standing.

"Damn it, scholars want our lives!"

"These turtles are fucking, talking in a row!"

"Damn it, what's wrong with making money for you?"

The nobles were insulted in their hearts, but no one could stand up to compete with these civil servants. It was not that they didn’t dare to stand up, but that they knew that they were the stupidest, but that they could easily lose their etiquette if they didn’t say it.

If you can't control it, words like Riyay's mother will appear, that would be very disrespectful!

"The state's monopoly and the ministers are allowed to be granted is a temporary measure. It is neither in line with the law nor in a concise way. If the power of the monopoly is not taken back, is Yunnan the Yunnan of the Ming Dynasty? Is it the private land of some people? The back garden?"

At this moment, Fang Xiaoru, a Hanlin scholar in the Imperial Heaven Supervisor, suddenly said among the civil servants, "Your Majesty, if this lasts, the country will not be a country!"

Suddenly, the surroundings were silent.

The lethality of this statement is too great. It directly rises to the point where Yunnan is in the Ming Dynasty. It directly talks about whether the country is the same as the country.

"I, be brave and speak out!" Fang Xiaoru continued, "Like salt and iron specialization, all dynasties have only been used by the vassal states to raise troops when the building is about to collapse. Nowadays, a province's commerce and trade are in the hands of several companies, how is it different from a vassal state?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Qingliu in the court who had been silent for a long time because of the scientific investigation case spoke out one after another, and the court was in full swing for a while.

Suddenly, Zhu Yunyu raised his hand slightly and calmed down in the court again.

He sat on the dragon throne, pondering for a moment with some embarrassment, and said, "The power of these franchise was obtained by the old ministers and their land and population. And he also said the age limit at that time, not for them to be franchise forever!"

"Your Majesty, I know that you are kind and generous." Yan Zhen, the chief censor, spoke directly, "But in the past few years, the wealth of the nobles has far exceeded the number of land they handed over. Besides, this trend cannot rise! If they are allowed to do so, even if the court takes it back in the future, it will be difficult to sustain it..."

"Your Majesty, you must not lose the foundation of the Ming Dynasty because of pity for the old ministers. You must not ignore the policies of a province because of your kindness!"

Dozens of civil servants spoke out together, making such a big noise slightly beyond Zhu Yun's expectations.

But thinking about it is a good idea. Civil officials have disliked these old nobles. Besides, in Yunnan, the annual salt and iron monopoly sale is an astronomical figure. From the national perspective, it will never fall into the hands of individuals.

Over the years, these old nobles have made a lot of money and are jealous. Having said that, if it weren’t for these old ministers who hold these autocratic powers, the other people would have let these civil servants clean up their bones.

Furthermore, the promise to them back then was to ease the conflicts at that time, so that they could willingly hand over their land and tenants under their name, and even use these interests to exchange for military power and influence in the army.

In other words, Zhu Yunyu was not the emperor at that time, but Zhu Yunyu is the emperor now. There are different decisions from one time and another.

"How many items can you get in a franchise in Yunnan?" Zhu Yunxi asked slowly.

"The Ministry of Revenue has an account book, and the Yunnan Provincial Administration Office has statistics!" Fu Youwen, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, said, "The Emperor Rong Chen will go back and take people to calculate!"

"Well, I'll make a calculation and submit it to me!" Zhu Yunhuang nodded and smiled.

"I obey the order!"

Then, Zhu Yunxiu smiled and looked at Chang Sheng and Zhao Sili's direction. He changed his subject, "You are royal relatives, and you have already lost your status in business. You have created the first floor of the capital. Then don't even do your officials anymore, just go to open a restaurant!"

Chang Sheng and Zhao Sili were still thinking about it just now. It was obvious that they were impeaching them, but why did the civil servants turn their guns and point them directly at the noble and old ministers?

Just as he was thinking, he didn't expect the emperor to change the verbal remarks.

"I am guilty, please punish me!" Chang Sheng kowtowed.

"You are my uncle, and Cheng'en Marquis is the Empress's father!" Zhu Yunxiu looked stern, "Do not care about his identity when doing things, you should also think of me, the Empress, and the Crown Prince. You should set an example for other royal relatives and set an example!"

"For the sake of small profits, I don't want any face?"

As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu glanced at them again, "Remove his official position and go home to think about his mistakes behind closed doors!" At this time, looking at Chang Sheng, he frowned, "In front of your house, the Duke of Zheng, I have picked up the sign of Duke Zheng!"

After saying that, he stood up and said, "Scatter the court!"

The emperor left with his sleeves, and the ministers were dissatisfied.

There seems to be no accurate answer to the matter of taking over the franchise power in the hands of the nobles, but there is also an accurate answer. Because a small matter happened to Duke Zheng, it seems to have nothing to do with this matter, but it seems to be related to it.

People with a flexible mind can think that the emperor has even dealt with his uncle and father-in-law, what are there too many people?”

Whether it is Duke Zheng or Cheng'en, it was presented to those nobles.

Whether you are a hereditary noble or a royal relative, life and death are all in the emperor's thoughts. You can give you anything and take back everything.
