Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, Swear Not to Go to Meishan

Chapter 333 I Wish They Would Rebel

According to Ma Congyun's confession, he was a small steward in the mansion of Xie Yunzhao, a doctor in the Ministry of Works. He was usually in charge of the affairs of the farm outside the city. This time, he was ordered by Liu Tian, ​​the manager of the farm, to teach a few ignorant scholars a lesson, so he hired a killer to hurt people.

According to the intelligence obtained by Jinyiwei, Liu Tian did have some grudges with those scholars a few days ago, and it was understandable that he ordered Ma Congyun to take revenge. The key point was that after the matter was exposed, Liu Tian was afraid of being arrested by Jinyiwei and imprisoned, and he was tortured into confessing, so he committed suicide out of fear of crime.

Once the key criminal died, there would naturally be no evidence. In addition, Xie Yunzhao refused to admit it and cleared himself. Even if Zhu Youjian knew that the real mastermind was the Donglin Party, and a small character like Xie Yunzhao was just following orders, in this special period, Zhu Youjian had no legitimate reason to chop off Xie Yunzhao's head to kill one and warn the rest.

However, he still used the excuse of not controlling his subordinates strictly to demote Xie Yunzhao and sent him to a small county town in the remote and cold Ningyuan as a county magistrate.

A group of Donglin Party officials seemed to have sensed the strong murderous intent in Zhu Youjian's heart. In addition, there were some problems within the party in the past few days, and no one dared to stand up and plead for Xie Yunzhao, and watched him being dragged away by the guards.

Zhu Youjian's reason for the internal strife of the Donglin Party in the Qing Dynasty. Although the pit dug by the two military strategists was simple, it really hit the point. It was difficult for the Donglin Party not to fall into the pit.

Human nature is sometimes so complicated.

"My lords, in order to facilitate the management of the commercial market, I want to set up an industrial and commercial bureau and temporarily put it under the management of the Ministry of Households. Do you have any good suggestions?" Zhu Youjian said in a deep voice.

According to the previous routine, this proposal would be put forward by the cabinet's deputy assistant Ruan Dacheng in the court, and then enforced after some bargaining, but the increasingly powerful Zhu Youjian was too lazy to play routines and directly put it forward in court.

His tone and demeanor seemed to be a negotiation, but anyone could hear that the establishment of the Industry and Commerce Bureau was imperative, and whoever opposed it would not have a good ending.

Those merchants dared to strike the market and create chaos to threaten him. Once the Industry and Commerce Bureau is established, you will cry. If you dare to make trouble again, you will be beheaded and your property will be confiscated. My butcher knife has been sharpened. Let's see who dares to jump out and test the knife. Humph.

Thinking of those merchants who struck the market and created chaos to threaten him, his murderous intent became stronger.

Zhu Youjian waved his hand and asked the palace maids and eunuchs to send the printed details of the functions and management of the Industry and Commerce Bureau to all officials for review, waiting for their reactions.

It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning. Many new things are like crossing a river by feeling the stones. It takes constant attempts and improvements to form rules. But for Zhu Youjian, this is not a problem at all. Just copy the industrial and commercial management regulations of another time and space.

The officials read the industrial and commercial management implementation rules and whispered, with expressions of surprise and admiration on their faces. Even if the officials of the Donglin Party wanted to find faults, they had to admit that the management rules were so perfect that they could hardly find faults.

The person who can come up with this management rule is so awesome that people bow down to him.

"If you have any questions, I can explain it to you in person." Zhu Youjian said in a deep voice. He saw all the expressions and reactions of the officials. Now he just waited for the Donglin Party to jump out and make trouble.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say." Ruan Dacheng was the first to stand up.

"Speak." Zhu Youjian raised his sword eyebrows. What does this guy want to say?

He was not worried that Ruan Dacheng would jump out to oppose, because Ruan Dacheng had offended many people in the matter of taxing merchants, and there was no way out. He could only bite the bullet and cling to his thick dragon legs. He was just curious about what Ruan Dacheng wanted to say?

"Your Majesty, this management rule is almost perfect, and I fully support it. However, I am worried that those merchants will continue to make trouble and cause unrest." Ruan Dacheng said cautiously.

Even if the emperor did not consult him in advance and let him charge at the forefront, he knew in his heart that the establishment of the Industry and Commerce Bureau was aimed at those merchants who went on strike and created chaos, but once the Industry and Commerce Bureau was established, it would inevitably cause a strong backlash from those merchants and cause greater unrest.

"I am still looking forward to their rebellion, hum."
